As part of a study at a large university, data were collected on n= 224 freshmen computer science (CS) majors in a particular year. The researchers were interested in modeling y, a student's grade point average (GPA) after three semesters, as a function of the following independent variables (recorded at the time the students enrolled in the university): X1 = average high school grade in mathematics (HSM) × 2 = average high school grade in science (HSS) X 3 = average high school grade in English (HSE) XA = SAT mathematics score (SATM) X5 = SAT verbal score (SATV) A first-order model was fit to the data with the following results: SOURCE DF MS F VALUE PROB>F S MODEL 28.64 5.73 11.69 .0001 ERROR 218 106.82 0.49 TOTAL 223 135.46 ROOT MSE DEP MEAN 0.700 4.635 R-SQUARE ADJ R-SQ 0.211 0.193 I FOR O ERROR PARAMETER =0 PROB>ITI PARAMETER STANDARD VARIABLE ESTIMATE INTERCEPT 0.0001 0.0003 0.3432 2.327 0.039 5.817 X1 (HSM) X2 (HSS) X3 (HSE) 0.146 0.037 3.718 0.036 0.038 0.950 0. 1637 0. 1702 0.4915 Test to determine if the model is adequate for predicting GPA.

Studies have shown that people who suffer sudden cardiac arrest have a better chance of survival if a defibrillator shock is administered very soon after cardiac arrest. How is survival rate related to the time between when cardiac arrest occurs and when the defibrillator shock is delivered? The accompanying data give y = survival rate (percent) and x = mean call-to-shock time (minutes) for a cardiac rehabilitation center (in which cardiac arrests occurred while victims were hospitalized and so the call-to-shock time tended to be short) and for four communities of different sizes. Mean call-to-shock time, x 2 6 79 12 Survival rate, y (a) Construct a scatterplot for these data. y 12. 10 O 8 6 20 40 60 91 44 32 6 4 80 100 y 100 80 60 ELL 40 20 2 4 6 8 X 12 10 8 6 4 20 40 60 (b) Find the equation of the least-squares line.

Suppose an oceanographer monitors the daily salinity of a particular ocean in relation to the temperature of the water. The oceanographer plots the data with temperature, in degrees Celsius (°C), along the horizontal axis and salinity, in parts per thousand (ppt), along the vertical axis. Select the true statement about the data point identified by the arrow. An ocean temperature of 21 °C causes the salinity to be 29 ppt. The predicted salinity is 29 ppt when the ocean temperature for the day is 21 °C. An ocean temperature of 29 °C corresponds to a salinity level of 21 ppt. The observed salinity is 29 ppt when the ocean temperature for the day is 21 °C. There is no relationship between the temperature of the ocean on a given day and salinity.

In a study a group of 50 adults were asked how comfortable they felt around 5 types of animals: dogs, cats, cows, horses and sheep. For each type of animal, each respondent gave a number between 0 and 100 to indicate their comfort level (0 being 'hate being around' to 100 being 'love being around'). The data are given in Table 10, along with the loadings of the first two principal components.

A special education teacher did research on whether or not there is a relationship between the number of students in his class and the number incidents of “acting out” behaviors exhibited by the autistic students in the classroom. He collects data for a year and aggregates them by month. He obtained the statistics below, r= -.863 R2=.74 b= -1.212294 a= 131.176598 10.) How does the presence of more students affect the incidents in the class? a) as students are added the incidences increase b) as students are added the incidences decrease c) the number of students does not affect acting out d) the number of students caused more incidents How much of the variability of acting out is explained by the number of students in the class?___________

An article published in the American Journal of Hypertension reported the results of a longitudinal study on blood pressure. Ten years ago, 51 out of 188 people evaluated were classified as having high blood pressure. This year, 63, out of 194 people evaluated were classified as having high blood pressure. Based on the results of this study, can one conclude that the proportion of people in the population with high blood pressure has increased in the last ten years? Use a = 0.05. I can't find the sign=a I hope someone will know what I am talking about.

An investigation of the properties of bricks used to line aluminum smelter pots was published in an article. Six different commercial bricks were evaluated. The life span of a smelter pot depends on the porosity of the brick lining (the less porosity, the longer the life span); consequently, the researchers measured the apparent porosity of each brick specimen, as well as the mean pore diameter of each brick. See the table. Apparent Porosity (y). Mean Pore Diameter (x). Click the icon to view the table. Data table Mean Pore Diameter Apparent Porosity (%) (micrometers) Brick Interpret the y-intercept of the line. Choose the correct answer below. 18.7 12.0 В 18.3 9.8 O A. The y-intercept is Bo- This value has no meaning because 0 is not in the observed range of the independent variable mean pore diameter. 16.3 7.3 6.9 5.4 O B. The y-intercept is Bo: For each unit increase in mean pore diameter, the mean porosity is estimated to increase by B0- 17.2 10.9 O C. There is not enough…
