A regression was run to determine if there is a relationship between hours of TV watched per day, xx, and number of sit-ups, yy, a person can do in a minute. The results of the regression were: y=ax+b a=-1.253 b=23.321Use this to predict the number of sit-ups a person who watches 8.58.5 hours of TV can do in a minute. Round to the nearest whole number.

In 2016 the Better Business Bureau settled 84% of complaints they received in the United States. Suppose you have been hired by the Better Business Bureau to investigate the complaints they received this year involving new car dealers. You plan to select a sample of new car dealer complaints to estimate the proportion of complaints the Better Business Bureau is able to settle. Assume the population proportion of complaints settled for new car dealers is 0.84, the same as the overall proportion of complaints settled in 2016. Use the z-table. a. Suppose you select a sample of 200 complaints involving new car dealers. Show the sampling distribution of p. E(p) (to 2 decimals) (to 4 decimals) b. Based upon a sample of 200 complaints, what is the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion (to 4 decimals)? probability : = c. Suppose you select a sample of 460 complaints involving new car dealers. Show the sampling distribution of p. E(F) (to 2…

Empathy means being able to understand what others feel. To see how the brain expresses empathy, researchers recruited 16 couples in their midtwenties who were married or had been dating for at least two years. They zapped the man's hand with an electrode while the woman watched, and measured the activity in several parts of the woman's brain that would respond to her own pain. Brain activity was recorded as a fraction of the activity observed when the woman herself was zapped with the electrode. The women also completed a psychological test that measures empathy.

A large automobile insurance company selected samples of single and married male policyholders and recorded the number who made an insurance claim over the preceding three-year period. Z-value p-value Single Policyholders n₁ = 440 Number making claims = 88 a. Use a = 0.05. Test to determine whether the claim rates differ between single and married male policyholders. (to 2 decimals) (to 4 decimals) X Married Policyholders n2 = 840 Number making claims 126 We can conclude ✔ that there is the difference between claim rates. b. Provide a 95% confidence interval (to 4 decimals) for the difference between the proportions for the two populations. Enter negative answer as negative number. X * )
You want to conduct a study on the proportion of Penn State students who miss class when it is raining. Suppose here is the data you collect for students who live on-campus versus students who live off-campus: Never Miss Sometimes Miss Always Miss On-Campus 20 12 13 Off-Campus 45 14 22 a. For on-campus students (only), estimate the true difference in proportions for those who never miss class versus those who always miss class, when it is raining. Place a bound on the error of estimation. b. Estimate the true difference between the proportions of on-campus students who always miss class versus the proportion of off-campus students who always miss class, when it is raining. Place a bound on the error of estimation.

Arsenic is toxic to humans and people can be exposed to it through contaminated drinking water, food, dust, and soil. Scientists have devised a non-invasive way to measure a person's level of arsenic poisoning: by examining toenail clippings. In a recent study, scientists measure the level of arsenic (in mg/kg) in toenail clippings of 8 people who lived near a former arsenic mine in Great Britain. The following levels are recorded. 0.8, 1.9, 2.7, 3.4, 3.9, 7.1, 11.9, 26.0 Below are the summary statistics of the data. min Q1 median Q3 max sd n mean 0.8 2.5 3.65 8.3 26 7.2125 8.368041 8 Suppose the 8 people examined were randomly sampled from residents near the former arsenic mine. Is it legitimate to construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean level of arsenic (in mg/kg) in toenail clippings for residents near the former arsenic mine using a t-distribution? Explain briefly.
