A weight-loss program wants to test how well their program is working. The company selects a simple random sample of 51 individual that have been using their program for 15 months. For each individual person, the company records the individual's weight when they started the program 15 months ago as an x-value. The subject's current weight is recorded as a y-value. Therefore, a data point such as (205, 190) would be for a specific person and it would indicate that the individual started the program weighing 205 pounds and currently weighs 190 pounds. In other words, they lost 15 pounds. When the company performed a regression analysis, they found a correlation coefficient of r = 0.707. This clearly shows there is strong correlation, which got the company excited. However, when they showed their data to a statistics professor, the professor pointed out that correlation was not the right tool to show that their program was effective. Correlation will NOT show whether or not there is…

For a data set of the pulse rates for a sample of adult females, the lowest pulse rate is 31 beats per minute, the mean of the listed pulse rates is `x=79.0 beats per minute, and their standard deviation is s=14.7 beats per minute. a. What is the difference between the pulse rate of 31 beats per minute and the mean pulse rate of the females? b. How many standard deviations is that [the difference found in part (a)]? c. Convert the pulse rate of 31 beats per minutes to a z score. d. If we consider pulse rates that convert to z scores between −2 and 2 to be neither significantly low nor significantly high, is the pulse rate of 31 beats per minute significant?
