Visualize that two tributaries A and B at their confluence form a river C. Statistical properties of flow data for tributaries A and B indicate that tributary A has a yearly discharge rate smaller than its mean flow rate (?̅?) in 50% of the years while tributary B has a yearly discharge rate smaller than its mean flow rate (?̅?) in 60% of the time. In 70% of the years in which tributary A has a discharge rate smaller than its mean discharge rate (?̅?), tributary B also has a discharge rate smaller than its mean discharge rate (?̅?). Compute the probability that (i) both tributaries have a discharge rate smaller than their mean discharge rates, (ii) at least one tributary has a discharge rate smaller than its mean discharge rate, (iii) tributary A has a discharge rate smaller than its mean discharge rate given that tributary B has a discharge rate smaller than its mean discharge rate, (iv) at least one tributary has discharge rate higher than its mean discharge rate, and (v) probability…

You are considering the relationship between annual returns on the S&P 500 index (January 31 to January 31) and annual changes in the unemployment rate. You define:S = annual % change in the S&P500 (SPX)U = annual % change in the unemployment rateYou consider the following univariate relationship:Si = b0 + b1Ui + εiYou have data on annual changes in the unemployment rate and the S&P500 (SPX) from 2002 through 2020 (19 observations) and you want to use the data to estimate the regression coefficients (intercept b0 and slope b1)You are given the following statistics: Statistic Value Cov(U,S) -0.025043 Var(U) 0.034590 E(U) -0.001530 E(S) 0.064267 TSS 0.627907 RSS 0.326368 Compute the estimated coefficients for the intercept (b0) and slope (b1) and the R2 So far in 2021, the unemployment rate has decreased by 24% (from 6.3 percent to 4.8 percent). If the unemployment rate holds steady until the end of the year, resulting in an…
Multiple regression analysis was used to study how an individual's income (Y in thousands of dollars) is influenced by age (X1 in years), level of education (X2 ranging from 1 to 5), and the person's gender (X3 where 1 =female and 0=male). The following is a partial result of a computer program that was used on a sample of 30 individuals. Coefficient Standard Error X1 0.63 0.094 X2 0.94 0.190 X3 0.52 0.120 Analysis of Variance Source of Degrees Sum of Mean Variation of Freedom Squares Square F Regression 90 Error 100 Use the above results and write the…
John finds r=-.60 between the variable of number of hours studied (X) and number of errors on a statistics test (Y). He also finds r= +.30 between the variables of size of the classroom (X) and number of errors on the test (Y). (a) describe the relative shapes of the two scatterplots (b) describe the relative amount of variability in Y scores at each X in each study (c) describe the relative closeness of Y scores to the regression line in each study
