9. Suppose a picker needs to walk from the beginning of the aisle to a location at a distance L, pick an item, and return to the beginning of the aisle. The picker walks at a speed of 2.5 meters per second and takes 10 seconds to pick the item. (a) Give an equation for the round trip travel time R as a function of L and the other data. (b) If the mean of L is 5 meters and the standard deviation of L is 3 meters, what is the mean and variance of R?

A researcher knows that people with higher annual salaries commit fewer crimes. He is creating a regression model to predict the number of crimes a person will commit based on their salary Based on this information alone which of the following MUST be the slope of the regression line choose one 1.00 or 0.50 or -0.50
A patient is classified as having gestational diabetes if their average glucose level is above 140 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dl) one hour after a sugary drink is ingested. Rebecca's doctor is concerned that she may suffer from gestational diabetes. There is variation both in the actual glucose level and in the blood test that measures the level. Rebecca's measured glucose level one hour after ingesting the sugary drink varies according to the Normal distribution with μ=140+5 mg/dl and σ=5+1 mg/dl. Using the Central Limit Theorem, determine the probability of Rebecca being diagnosed with gestational diabetes if her glucose level is measured: Once? n=5+2 times n=5+4 times Comment on the relationship between the probabilities observed in (a), (b), and (c). Explain, using concepts from lecture why this occurs and what it means in context.

Suppose that for a typical FedEx package delivery, the cost of the shipment is a function of the weight of the package measured in ounces. You want to try to predict the cost of a typical shipment given package dimensions. If 10 packages in a city are sampled and the regression output is given below, report the regression equation. 1) (cost of delivery) = 1.468*(weight) - 23.015 2) (weight) = -23.015*(cost of delivery) + 1.468 3) (cost of delivery) = -23.015*(weight) + 1.468 4) (cost of delivery) = 1.468*(weight) 5) (weight) = 1.468*(cost of delivery) - 23.015

For variables X and Y we have that the correlation between them is 0.9. Also the standard deviation of Y is 8, while the standard deviation of X is 2. What is the slope of the regression equation that attempts to predict Y from X? Use two decimal places in your answer. Your Answer:
Mean for nunber 5 is 100
Adriel decides to research the relationship between the length in inches and the weight of a certain species of catfish. He measures the length and weight of a number of specimens he catches then throws back into the water. After plotting all his data, he draws a line of best fit. What does the slope of the line represent? A) The expected weight of a catfish that is 1 inch long. 75 70 65 60 B) The rate of change in the expected length of the catfish over its weight. 55 50 45 40 C) The rate of change in the expected weight of the catfish over its length. 35 30 25 20 15 D) The expected length of a catfish that weighs 1 pound. 10 8. 22 24 26 28 30 32 34 36 38 40 42 44 46 48 50 Catfish Length (inches) Catfish Weight (pounds)
