Cost of an Operation A medical researcher surveyed 12 hospitals and found that the standard deviation for the cost for removing a person's gall bladder was $53. Assume the variable is normally distributed. Based on this, in the 90% confidence intervals of the population variance and standard deviation. Round the answers to two decimal places. <<σ2 <<σ

In a study on running and happiness, runners indicated the number of miles they ran in a day and their subsequent score on a Happiness Survey (higher score = greater happiness). Runner # of miles (x) Happiness Score (y) 1 16 12 2 4 3 12 14 4 2 8 For these data: The mean of miles run is: 8.50 The mean of the Happiness scores is: 10.00 The standard deviation of the Miles scores is: 5.72 The standard deviation of the Happiness scores is: 3.16 In your submission, please include a copy of the SPSS or Excel output and answer the following: A. What is the r and r? value? B. Based on Pearson's r and r2 value, describe the relationship (direction/strength) that exists between # of miles run and Happiness scores. C.
