A physical education director claims by taking a special vitamin, a weight lifter can increase his strength. Ten athletes are selected and given a test of strength, using the standard bench press. After 2 weeks of regular training, supplemented with the vitamin, they are tested again. Test the effectiveness of the vitamin regimen at a = 0.05. Each value in these data represents the maximum number of pounds the athlete can bench-press. Assume that the variable is approximately normally distributed.

The following chart shows the percentage of the U.S. discretionary budget allocated to education from 2003 to 2009 (t = 3 represents the start of 2003). A bar graph titled "Percentage of U.S. budget on education" has a horizontal t-axis labeled "Year since 2000" and a vertical axis labeled "Percentage". The bar graph has 7 bars. Each bar is associated with a label and an approximate value as listed below. 3: 6.8% 4: 7% 5: 7% 6: 6.9% 7: 6.5% 8: 6.3% 9: 6.2% The following table shows the percentage of the U.S. discretionary budget allocated to education in 2003, 2005, and 2009 (t = 3 represents the start of 2003).

Ocean currents are important in studies of climate change, as well as ecology studies of dispersal of plankton. Drift bottles are used to study ocean currents in the Pacific near Hawaii, the Solomon Islands, New Guinea, and other islands. Let x represent the number of days to recovery of a drift bottle after release and y represent the distance from point of release to point of recovery in km/100. The following data are representative of one study using drift bottles to study ocean currents. x days 75 79 35 91 203 y km/100 14.2 19.1 5.8 11.2 35.4 (a) Verify that Σx = 483, Σy = 85.7, Σx2 = 62,581, Σy2 = 1978.69, Σxy = 10982.3, and r ≈ 0.94895.
