1. Analyzing the Data (a) The data in the table show the annual averages of the daily maximum concentrations of sulfur dioxide (in parts per billion) and nitrogen dioxide (in parts per billion) for 12 years. Construct a scatter plot of the data and make a conclusion about the type of correlation between the average concentrations of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide. (b) Calculate the correlation coefficient r and verify your conclusion in part (a). (c) Test the significance of the correlation coefficient found in part (b). Use a = (d) Find the equation of the regression line for the average concentrations of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide. Add the graph of the regression line to your scatter plot in part (a). Does the regression line appear to be a good fit? 0.05. (e) Can you use the equation of the regression line to predict the average concentration of nitrogen dioxide given the average concentration of sulfur dioxide? Why or why not? (f) Find the coefficient of determination r² and the standard error of estimate se. Interpret your results,

A scientist, who wants to study the effects of precipitation on rice crops, sets up an experiment with 4 groups of rice crops. Rice crop harvest vs. precipitation level Group B Group A 0 150 Group C Precipitation (cm/annually) Harvest (pounds/acre) 0 60 Which statement best describes the relationship between the dependent and independent variables in this study? 20 O The amount of precipitation is dependent on the amount of rice harvest. O The amount of rice harvest is positively correlated with the increase in precipitation. The amount of rice harvest is not affected by the amount of precipitation. The amount of rice harvest is negatively correlated with the increase in precipitation. 200 Group D 40 300
Part A: What is the most likely value of the correlation coefficient of the data in the table?
