a. Assuming that the sample consists of n = 16 individuals, use a = .05 to determine whether the treatment effect is significant and compute both Cohen’s d and r² to measure effect size. b. Assuming that the sample consists of n = 31 individuals, repeat the test and compute both measures of effect size.

Based on the boxplot, which of the following is the most reasonable conclusion? a. There are more people with data values below the median than there are people with data values above the median. Selected:b. There are more people with data values between the first quartile and the median than there are people with data values between the median and the third quartile.This answer is incorrect. c. There are fewer people with data values between the first quartile and the median than there are people with data values between the median and the third quartile. d. There are approximately the same number of people with data values between the first quartile and the minimum as there are people with data values between the third quartile and the maximum. e.

3. Can SAT scores predict college performance? Let x be a variable that represents SAT score of a computer science major, and let y be a variable that represents a student’s GPA upon graduation. A random sample of n =15 computer science majors provided their SAT scores and GPAs: x 1232 1070 1086 1287 1130 1048 1121 1095 1135 1208 1333 1160 1186 1243 1261 y 3.52 2.91 2.4 3.47 3.47 2.37 2.4 2.24 3.02 3.32 3.59 2.54 3.19 3.71 3.58 The scatter diagram for the SAT score and GPA is given below: (a) Find the sample correlation coefficient r. Truncate to two decimal places. What does the value tell you about the data? (b) Find the equation of the least squares line . Truncate to four decimal places. What does the slope mean? (c) Find the value of the coefficient of determination . Truncate to two decimal places. What does this number mean? (d) What is the predicted GPA if a computer science major got a…
