true or false: If a 90% CI for the difference between two means is calculated to be [ 6.2, 9.6] then in words this is interpreted as the 90% of the time the true population difference in means will be between 6.2 and 9.6
For a random sample of households in the US, we record annual household income, whether the location is east or west of the Mississippi River, and number of children. We are interested in determining whether or not there is a linear relationship between household income and number of children. Part 1 (a) State the null and alternative hypotheses.

The older that an adult tends to be before deciding to get married, the longer the person's marriage tends to last. What type of correlation exists between age of marriage and the number of years the marriage lasts? A. positive B. negative
A study of elementary school children, ages 6 to 11, finds a high positive correlation between shoe size x and score y on a test of reading comprehension. The observed correlation is most likely due to: the effect of a lurking variable, such as age or years of reading experience. a mistake, because the correlation must be negative. cause and effect (larger shoe size causes higher reading comprehension). reverse cause and effect (higher reading comprehension causes larger shoe size).

1. The data in Table 7–6 were collected in a clinical trial to evaluate a new compound designed to improve wound healing in trauma patients. The new compound was com- pared against a placebo. After treatment for 5 days with the new compound or placebo, the extent of wound healing was measured. Is there a difference in the extent of wound healing between the treatments? (Hint: Are treatment and the percent wound healing independent?) Run the appropriate test at a 5% level of significance. Use the data in Problem 1. Pool the data across the treatments into one sample of size n = 250. Use the pooled data to test whether the distribution of the percent wound healing is approximately normal. Specifically, use the following distribution 30%, 40%, 20%, and 10% and a = 0.05 to run the appropriate test. Percent Wound Healing Treatment 0-25% 26-50% 51-75% 76-100% New compound (n=125) 15 37 32 41 Placebo (n=125) 36 45 34 10
Q1. A psychologist conducted a study on the relationship between introversion and shyness. The values are results for scales of introversion and shyness. High positive scores on each scale indicate high introversion or shyness; and high negative scores indicate low introversion or shyness. Data collected from 10 people as follows: Introversion 4 -7 -1 0 6 7 -4 -9 -5 8 Shyness 11 -7 -1 -3 0 7 -1 -8 -1 5 a) Compute the correlation coefficient relating introversion and shyness scores. b) Find the regression equation which predicts introversion from shyness. c) What introversion score would you predict from a shyness score of 7?
