Consider a certain data set on shoulder girth and height of a group of individuals. The mean shoulder girth is 107.20 cm with a standard deviation of 10.37 cm. The mean height is 171.14 cm with a standard deviation of 9.41 cm. The correlation between height and shoulder girth is 0.67. Calculate R2 of the regression line for predicting height from shoulder girth, and interpret it in the context of the application.

Do wearable devices that monitor diet and physical activity help people lose weight? Researchers had 237 subjects who were already involved in a program of diet and exercise use wearable technology for 24 months. They measured their weight (in kilograms) before using the technology and 24 months after using the technology. The 237 differences in weight (weight after 24 months minus weight before using the wearable technology) had x = -3.5 and s = 7.8. Let u be the mean weight difference. 41 John M.

The systolic blood pressure of individuals is thought to be related to both age and weight. Let the systolic blood pressure, age, and weight be represented by the variables x1, x2, and x3, respectively. Suppose that Minitab was used to generate the following descriptive statistics, correlations, and regression analysis for a random sample of 15 individuals. Relative to its mean, which variable has the greatest spread of data values?

A sample of 100 bears was treated like it was the whole population of Jellystone Park bears, and the mean weight was found to be 800 pounds with standard deviation 12 pounds, the mean blood pressure was 150 with standard deviation 6, and the sample correlation coefficient of weight with blood pressure was found to be .4. Based on this information, what is the regression slope for the SLR equation for predicting blood pressure using observed weight for Jellystone bears?
Suppose a psychologist used number of hours of sleep in the night before a quiz to predict the quiz score using simple linear regression. The mean number of hours of sleep is 6.28 and the SD is 2. The standardized coefficient (beta in SPSS) is 0.38. If the number of hours of sleep increases from 6.28 to 8.28, what is the increase in predicted quiz score in standard deviation?

A researcher was interested in comparing the resting pulse rates of people who exercise regularly and of those who do not exercise regularly. Independent simple random samples of 16 people who do not exercise regularly and 12 people who do exercise regularly were selected and the resting pulse rates (in beats per minute) were recorded. Test the claim that the mean resting pulse rate of people who exercise regularly is larger than the mean resting pulse rate of people who do not exercise regularly.
