An insurance company has a portfolio of car insurance. For a given period of time, it is assumed that the drivers are classified in two categories: 'good drivers' and 'bad drivers'. The proportion of good drivers is 75% of the total drivers. We also know that the number of claims for a each driver is following Poisson with parameter A where A =1 for good drivers and A = 3 for bad drivers.

A negative correlation indicates: the values on the two variables being analyzed move in opposite directions. a higher score on one variable is related to a higher score on the other variable. the scores of each case in a sample simultaneously on two variables the value on the two variables being analyzed move in the same direction.
You are a big soccer fan and you decide to gather information on the goal differential (goals scored - goals allowed) for your favorite team in the Premier League during the last season. You find that the average goal differential for home games (games that take place on the team's own stadium) was 1.37 and the average goal differential for away games (games that take place on the opponent team's stadium) was 0.32. With the data you have, if you regress goal differential (call it variable G) on a dummy variable (call it variable D) that takes the value 1 if the game is a home game and takes the value zero if the game is an away game, and obtain Ĝi = Bo + B₁ D₁, then, Bo will be equal to equal to and ₁ will be
Ria wants to know if there is a significant difference between the average monthly hair growth using Shampoo A vs Shampoo B. She recruited eight participants and compared their average monthly hair growth (in centimeters) using the two different brands. Her data is assumed to be normally distributed which produced the following values: Shampoo A 0.50 1.00 1.50 1.70 0.75 0.60 1.25 1.25 Shampoo B 1.00 1.25 2.00 2.00 1.50 1.00 1.50 1.75 Choose the appropriate test statistic and make a conclusion about the problem. Show your output below in a step-by-step manner: 21 - 22. State the null and alternative hypotheses. 23- 48. Make a decision about the null hypothesis: (23 - 26) Calculate the degree of freedom (27.)

The amount of income spent on housing is an important component of the cost of living. The total costs of housing for homeowners might include mortgage payments, property taxes, and utility costs (water, heat, electricity). An economist selected a sample of 20 homeowners in New England and then calculated these total housing costs as a percent of monthly income, 5 years ago and now. The information is reported below. Is it reasonable to conclude the percent is less now than 5 years ago?

Suppose that the students just completing freshman year at Galton University have Math SAT scores and first-year GPAS with the following summary statistics according to the registrar's office. Average Math SAT score = 540 SD = 100 Average first-year GPA = 2.6 r = 0.58 SD = 0.8 The scatterplot of their first-year GPAS on Math SAT scores is an oval-shaped cloud of points. Suppose a student from this freshman class at Galton University takes the SAT again during the summer and gets a score 75 points higher than his original score. By how much will his first-year GPA increase?
The following table lists highway miles (in MPG) and weight (in pounds) for a variety of cars, foreign and domestic (same data as before). CAR HWY WEIGHT Chev. Cavalier 31 2795 Lincoln Cont. 24 3930 Mitsubishi Eclipse 33 3235 Olds. Aurora 26 3995 Pontiac Grand Am 30 3115 Chev. Corvette 28 3220 BMW 3-Series 27 3225 Ford Crown Victoria 24 3985 Hyundai Accent If we let x be the weight and y be the Highway MPG, and we used Excel to compute the equation of the Least- 37 2290 Square regression line (which comes out to be y = -0.00672'x + 51.1156) as well as the correlation coefficient (which comes out to be -0.89). Then you used that equation to predict that the Highway Miles for a car that weighs just 1000 pounds would be 44.4 mpg. I think this prediction is accurate because the person used Excel for the computation. O I think this prediction is not accurate since a car that weighs 1000 pounds is not part of the original data list. O Ithink this prediction is not accurate because the person…
Consider a two-dimensional scatterplot representing the relationship between two continuous variables. If the correlation coefficient is -1, then: a. All points lie in a straight line with a slope of -1. b. All points lie in a straight line with an unknown negative slope. c. All points do not lie in a straight line but the best fitting regression line has a slope of -1 d. There is a strong positive relationship between the two variables.
Below shows the linear relationship between first year college GPA and high school GPA For both variables the GPA ranges from 0 to 4 in this sample. However, for the high schools sampled in this region, the true range of GPA is 0 to 5, how might this affect the correlation between these two variables?
The authors of a paper compared two different methods for measuring body fat percentage. One method uses ultrasound, and the other method uses X-ray technology. Body fat percentages using each of these methods for 16 athletes (a subset of the data given in a graph that appeared in the paper) are given in the accompanying table. You can assume that the 16 athletes who participated in this study are representative of the population of athletes.
