B6. Pinan Insurance Company wants to study the relationship between the amount of fire damage and the distance between the burning house and the nearest fire station. This information will be used in setting rates for insurance coverage. For a sample of 30 claims for the last year, the director of the actuarial department determined the distance from the fire station (x) and the amount of fire damage, in thousands of dollars (y).

A sample of 17 participants took part in a hearing experiment. Among other things, the absolute hearing threshold (in decibels) was measured for each participant. The 17 measurements were as follows: 25, 22, 18, 35, 37, 34, 31, 36, 36, 36, 33, 33, 30, 30, 30, 26, 26 Send data to calculator Draw the histogram for these data using an initial class boundary of 17.5 and a class width of 4. Note that you can add or remove classes from the figure. Label each class with its endpoints. Frequency 7- 5+ 4+ 2+ 1- Absolute hearing threshold (in decibels) 3.

Heights (cm) and weights (kg) are measured for 100 randomly selected adult males, and range from heights of 138 to 188 cm and weights of 40 to 150 kg. Let the predictor variable x be the first variable given. The 100 paired measurements yield x = 167.61 cm, y = 81.52 kg, r=0.271, P-value=0.006, and y = -103 +1.18x. Find the best predicted value of ŷ (weight) given an adult male who is 155 cm tall. Use a 0.10 significance level. The best predicted value of y for an adult male who is 155 cm tall is (Round to two decimal places as needed.) kg.
A team of engineers at the research center of a car manufacturer performs crash tests to determine the proportion of times the cars' airbags fail to operate in a crash. With the airbag system's new modified design, the team expected to reduce the failed proportion to be below last year's proportion of 0.08. They decided to test HO: p = 0.08 versus Ha: p < 0.08, where p = the proportion of failed airbags during crash tests. If 300 crashes performed in the lab resulted in 18 failures, which of the following is the test statistic for this test?
