Based on data from 34 adults who exercise regularly, the line of best fit for the relationship between bicep girth (the length in centimeters around the upper arm) and the person's weight is: predicted weight = 2.6 bicep girth – 10.5 %3D where predicted weight is measured in kilograms and bicep girth is measured in centimeters.
Pesticide danger: One of the factors that determines the degree of risk a pesticide poses to human health is the rate at which a pesticide is absorbed into skin after contact. An important question is whether the amount in the skin continues to increase with the length of the contact, or whether it increases for only a short time before leveling off. To investigate this, measured amounts of a certain pesticide were applied to 20 samples of rat skin. Four skins were analyzed at each of the time intervals 1, 2, 4, 10, and 24 hours. The amounts of the chemical (in micrograms) that were in the skin are given in the following table.
According to an exit poll for an election, 55.1% of the sample size of 819 reported voting for a specific candidate. Is this enough evidence to predict who won? Test that the population proportion who voted for this candidate was 0.50 against the alternative that it differed from 0.50. Complete parts a through d below. OD. The parameter is the number of voters that voted for the candidate. Define the notation for the parameter. OA. p= the number of voters that did not vote for the candidate OB. p= the number of voters that voted for the candidate C. p=population proportion of voters that voted for the candidate D. p=sample proportion of votes for the candidate b.

The Transylvania hypothesis claims that the full moon has an effect on health-related behavior. A study investigating this effect found a significant relationship between the phase of the moon and the (x-4) + 100 where y is the number of consultations as a percentage of the daily mean and x is the days since the last full 15.12 number of general practice consultations nationwide, given by y = 1.9 cos moon. a. What is the period of this function? What is the significance of this period? The period is days. (Round to two decimal places as needed.) Choose the correct meaning of the period p in the context of the problem. The x-distance between the maximum and the minimum of the graph is p. Every p days there is a full moon. There were p% more consultations when there was a full moon. The average number of daily consultations is p. b. If there was a full moon on April 7, on what day in April does this formula predict the maximum number of consultations? What percent increase would be…
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. Σx = 476, Σy = 87.1, Σx2 = 62,290, Σy2 = 2046.87, Σxy = 11121.3,and r ≈ 0.94367. x days 72 76 32 91 205y km/100 14.7 19.6 5.3 11.7 35.8 a) Use a 1% level of significance to test the claim ? > 0.(Use 2 decimal places.)t =critical t= b) Find the predicted distance (km/100) when a drift bottle has been floating for 60 days.
