A special education teacher did research on whether or not there is a relationship between the number of students in his class and the number incidents of “acting out” behaviors exhibited by the autistic students in the classroom. He collects data for a year and aggregates them by month. He obtained the statistics below, r= -.863 R2=.74 b= -1.212294 a= 131.176598 10.) How does the presence of more students affect the incidents in the class? a) as students are added the incidences increase b) as students are added the incidences decrease c) the number of students does not affect acting out d) the number of students caused more incidents How much of the variability of acting out is explained by the number of students in the class?___________
A physical therapist wanted to know whether the mean step pulse of men was less than the mean step pulse of women. She randomly selected 54 men and 70 women to participate in the study. Each subject was required to step up and down a 6-inch platform. The pulse of each subject was then recorded. The following results were obtained.

The authors of a paper classified characters who were depicted smoking in movies released between a certain range of years. The smoking characters were classified according to sex and whether the character type was positive, negative, or neutral. The resulting data are summarized in the accompanying table. Assume that it is reasonable to consider this sample of smoking movie characters as representative of smoking movie characters. Do the data provide evidence an association between sex and character type for movie characters who smoke? Use α = 0.05. Sex = Male Female Positive Negative Neutral 256 Character Type 85 107 11 132 51 Calculate the test statistic. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) x² Use technology to calculate the P-value.
