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.

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. 203 x days y km/100 72 76 32 14.7 94 11.7 19.5 5.3 35.6 (a) Verify that Ex = 477, Ey = 86.8, Ex? = 62,029, Ey2 = 2028.68, Exy = 11036.6, and r= 0.93853.

For major league baseball teams, is there a relationship between player payrolls and gate money? Here are data for each of the American League teams for the year 2000. The variable x denotes the 2000 player payroll (in millions of dollars), and the variable y denotes the mean attendance (in thousands of fans) for the 81 home games that year. The data are plotted in the Figure 1 scatter plot. Also given is the product of the player payroll and the mean attendance for each of the fourteen teams. (These products, written in the column labelled "xy", may aid in calculations.)

The marketing research department of a large company knows that the company's monthly sales are influenced by the way in which it spends money on marketing. For example, monthly expenditures such as the ones listed below are known to have an effect on y, the company's total monthly sales (in millions of dollars). x = money spent on television advertising (in 1000's of dollars) X2 = money spent on promotion (i.e., free samples) x3 = money spent on newspaper advertising (in 1000's of dollars) X = average discounts offered to retail outlets (in %) Using data from the previous 26 months, the company decides to collect data on 3 of the independent variables to use in a multiple regression model for estimating monthly sales. If the R´ for this model is 0.5, fill in the missing entries in the ANOVA table associated with this model. Do all calculations to at least three decimal places.

Read the following excerpt of an article published on psychologytoday.com: “Researchers found that about 40% of college students in their study binge drink (i.e., consuming 5 or more drinks in a short amount of time) and that the vast majority of campus sexual assaults are fueled by alcohol.” Identify the variables of interest and indicate which the independent is and which the dependent variable is. Identify the classification of the independent variable (discrete or continuous) and explain the reason for your choice. Discuss what measure of central tendency is the most appropriate for each variable (independent and dependent variable) making sure to explain why.
