During a particularly dry growing season in a southern state, farmers noticed that there is a delicate balance between the number of seeds that are planted per square foot and the yield of the crop in pounds per square foot. The yields were the smallest when the number of seeds per square foot was either very small or very large. The data in the table show various numbers of seeds planted per square foot and yields (in pounds per square foot) for a sample of fields. A 2-column table with 15 rows. Column 1 is labeled number of seeds (per square foot) with entries 28, 75, 30, 43, 71, 35, 40, 59, 66, 79, 85, 81, 16, 33, 16. Column 2 is labeled yield (pounds per square foot) with entries 131, 171, 132, 166, 169, 150, 161, 183, 173, 161, 147, 157, 86, 145, 86. Which scatterplot represents the seed and yield data? A graph titled number of Seeds and Crop Yield has seeds (per square foot) on the x-axis, and yard (pounds per square foot) on the y-axis. The points curve up to a point, and…
r. Lyte wishes to study speed of Reaction Time to press a button in response to the onset of a lamp. The independent variable (IV) is the color of the light produced by the lamp (red, orange, yellow, green, or blue). Since only 10 participants are available, she elects to administer the IV within-subjects with all 10 participants being exposed to all five levels of the color variable. The order of the color of the light presentation is to be counterbalanced. Using concepts from the textbook, why would Dr. Lyte need to use counterbalancing in this scenario?
The U.S. Department of Energy’s Fuel Economy Guide provides fuel efficiency data for cars and trucks. The following regression output was obtained for a sample of 45 cars. The variable of interest is highway miles per gallon (Hwy MPG). The independent variables used in the analysis are as follows: The class of the vehicle: Compact, Midsize or Large. Midsize = 1 if the car is a midsize, 0 otherwise. Similarly, Large = 1 if it is a large car, 0 otherwise. Displcement: The engine displacement (size) in liters Premium: Equals 1 if premium fuel is used, 0 if regular fuel is used Cylinders: Number of cylinders Regression Statistics Multiple R 0.90 R Square Adjusted R Square 0.79 Standard Error 1.78 Observations 45 ANOVA df SS MS F Significance F…
The following data was collected from a clinical trial testing a new drug aimed to lower blood pressure for individuals older than age 45. Half of the 20 participants received the new drug (Treatment = Yes) and the other half of the participants received a placebo pill (Treatment = No). Their age and gender was also recorded. Please use this data for Questions 17-19 and 20-24 and note, not all the information in the table will be used for either problem, you must decide what is relevant based on what the problem is asking.

Thompson Photo Works purchased several new, highly sophisticated processing machines. The production department needed some guidance with respect to qualifications needed by an operator. Is age a factor? Is a person's mechanical aptitude score important? To evaluate the factors needed to estimate performance on the new processing machines, four variables were selected: x1 = Length of time an employee was in the industryx2 = Mechanical aptitude test scorex3 = Prior on-the-job ratingx4 = Age Performance on the new machine is designated y.Thirty employees were randomly selected and data were collected for each of the variables. A few results follow: Name Performance on New Machine,y Length of Time in Industry,x1 Mechanical Aptitude Score,x2 Prior On-the-Job Performance,x3 Age,x4 Mike Miraglia 112 4 392 119 41 Sue Trythall 117 5 305 127 30 The equation is:yˆy⁢^⁢ = 10.3 + 0.4x1 + 0.986x2 + 0.212x3 + 0.007x4 As age increases by one year, how much does estimated performance on…
The following data show the pattern of results that was obtained in a study by Liguori and Robinson (2001) examining how different levels of alcohol and caffeine consumption influenced response time in a simulated driving test. The means show the average response time in milliseconds for different combinations of alcohol and caffeine. Remember larger reaction time means someone is slower to respond. For these data, indicate which are true/false There is an interaction, caffeine has a larger impact on reaction times (makes people respond faster) when participants haven’t had alcohol) A. True B. False
The National Safety Board wants to determine the effect of seat belt use on saving lives. One study showed data on children under the age of 5 who were involved in car accidents in which at least one fatality occurred. Below is the table: X1 Survivors (0) Fatalities (1) Total No belt (0) Adult belt (1) Child seat (2) 1129 509 1638 X2 432 73 505 733 139 872 Total 2294 721 3015 Answer in 2 decimal places. a) Determine the probability that a child will be in a child seat. b) Determine the probability that X1 = 0 given X2 = 0 c) What is the probability of X1 = 1 given X2 = 0?
Read the following text that describes an analytical study and complete the table below it: This research investigated the association or the relationship between some factors, namely (1) type of cars, (2) age and (3) gender of the car drivers and car accidents. More specifically, the researcher wanted to find out if these three independent factors had an impact on car accidents. He hypothesized that "car accidents do not increase or decrease as a result of the age of the drivers, gender of the driver and type of car". The sample of this research consisted of 2000 car drivers of different gender, ages and types of cars. The researcher designed a questionnaire to collect the primary data required. The questionnaire was very short. It elicited some demographic data from the respondents such as their gender, their age, and the type of car they used. The questionnaire also elicited from the participants if they had had accidents, the number of accidents they had and at what age they had…
Most supermarkets use scanners at the checkout counters. The data collected this way can be used to evaluate the effect of price and store's promotional activities on the sales of any product. The promotions at a store change weekly, and are mainly of two types: flyers distributed outside the store and through newspapers (which may or may not include that particular product), and in-store displays at the end of an aisle that call the customers' attention to the product. Weekly data was collected on a particular beverage brand, including sales (in number of units), price (in dollars), flyer (1 if product appeared that week, 0 if it didn't) and display (1 if a special display of the product was used that week, 0 if it wasn't).As a preliminary analysis, a simple linear regression model was done. The fitted regression equation was: sales = 2259 - 1418 price. The ANOVA F test p-value was .000, and r squared = 59.7%.According to this model, how many units will be sold, on average, when the…
You conducted additional studies with these men and found the following: The RR for those who drank one drink per day was 1.50 (95% CI:1.32-1.67) in comparison to the abstainers. For those men who drank three or more drinks per day the RR compared to the abstainers was 4.20 (95% CI 2.68-5.85). Which one of Hill’s criteria does this illustrate? Explain.

An educator is interested in determining if the medium used for online classes, whether a smartphone or laptop/desktop, influences the time (hrs) that Grade 12 students spend in these classes. A random sample of 10 students who were using smartphones and another random sample of 10 students who were using laptop/desktop were interviewed and reported the following times they spend in their daily online classes: Smartphone 0 30230 1 5 4 3 Medium for Online Class Laptop/Desktop 2 7 3 3 0 3 1 3 15 Suppose the assumption of equality of variance is satisfied. Perform an appropriate test of hypothesis to determine if the average time spent online significantly differs between the students using these two mediums. Use a 5% level of significance.
