3. Can SAT scores predict college performance? Let x be a variable that represents SAT score of a computer science major, and let y be a variable that represents a student’s GPA upon graduation. A random sample of n =15 computer science majors provided their SAT scores and GPAs: x 1232 1070 1086 1287 1130 1048 1121 1095 1135 1208 1333 1160 1186 1243 1261 y 3.52 2.91 2.4 3.47 3.47 2.37 2.4 2.24 3.02 3.32 3.59 2.54 3.19 3.71 3.58 The scatter diagram for the SAT score and GPA is given below: (a) Find the sample correlation coefficient r. Truncate to two decimal places. What does the value tell you about the data? (b) Find the equation of the least squares line . Truncate to four decimal places. What does the slope mean? (c) Find the value of the coefficient of determination . Truncate to two decimal places. What does this number mean? (d) What is the predicted GPA if a computer science major got a 1140 on the SAT? Truncate to two decimal places.
