What is meant by the statement that two variables are related?
Choose the correct answer.
OTwo variables are related when the value of one can be derived mathematically from the value of the other.
Two variables are related when a scatterplot can be made of points using the two variables as values.
OTwo variables are related when a change in one can be shown to cause a change in the other.
OTwo variables are related when a discernible pattern exists between them.
A pediatrician keeps some basic health information about all his patients. Here are four of the variables that he keeps track of for each patient:
• Body temperature (in degrees Fahrenheit, at time of doctor visit)
• Eye Color (blue, brown, or green) • Height (in inches, at time of their last doctor visit)
• Birth Order (whether they were born 1st , 2 nd , 3 rd, etc., among their sibling)
Of these four variables, one is Nominal, one is Ordinal, one is Interval, and one is Ratio.
Question 1. Match each variable with its scale of measurement. Of the four variables, state which one is Nominal, which is Ordinal, which is Interval, and which is Ratio.
• Body Temp – ?
• Eye Color -- ?
• Height -- ?
• Birth Order -- ?

- Broadway The ordered pairs below give the starting year and gross ticket sales S (in millions of dollars) for each Broadway season in New York City from 1997 through 2014. 1997,558 2003,771 2009,1020 1998,588 2004,769 2010,1081 1999,603 2005,862 2011,1139 2000,666 2006,939 2012,1139 2001,643 2007,938 2013,1269 2002,721 2008,943 2014,1365 (a) Use a graphing utility to create a scatter plot of the data. Let t=7 represent 1997. (b) Use the regression feature of the graphing utility to find the equation of the least squares regression line that fits the data. (c) Use the graphing utility to graph the scatter plot you created in part (a) and the model you found in part (b) in the same viewing window. How closely does the model represent the data? (d) Use the model to predict the gross ticket sales during the season starting in 2021. (e) Interpret the meaning of the slope of the linear model in the context of the problem.arrow_forwardCholesterol Cholesterol in human blood is necessary, but too much can lead to health problems. There are three main types of cholesterol: HDL (high-density lipoproteins), LDL (low-density lipoproteins), and VLDL (very low-density lipoproteins). HDL is considered “good” cholesterol; LDL and VLDL are considered “bad” cholesterol. A standard fasting cholesterol blood test measures total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides. These numbers are used to estimate LDL and VLDL, which are difficult to measure directly. Your doctor recommends that your combined LDL/VLDL cholesterol level be less than 130 milligrams per deciliter, your HDL cholesterol level be at least 60 milligrams per deciliter, and your total cholesterol level be no more than 200 milligrams per deciliter. (a) Write a system of linear inequalities for the recommended cholesterol levels. Let x represent the HDL cholesterol level, and let y represent the combined LDL VLDL cholesterol level. (b) Graph the system of inequalities from part (a). Label any vertices of the solution region. (c) Is the following set of cholesterol levels within the recommendations? Explain. LDL/VLDL: 120 milligrams per deciliter HDL: 90 milligrams per deciliter Total: 210 milligrams per deciliter (d) Give an example of cholesterol levels in which the LDL/VLDL cholesterol level is too high but the HDL cholesterol level is acceptable. (e) Another recommendation is that the ratio of total cholesterol to HDL cholesterol be less than 4 (that is, less than 4 to 1). Identify a point in the solution region from part (b) that meets this recommendation, and explain why it meets the recommendation.arrow_forwardWhich of the following are examples of a variable?A.

- < A 7:30 Gulf Real Estate Properties Gulf Real Estate Properties, Inc., is a real estate firm located in southwest Florida. The company, which advertises itself as "expert in the real estate market," monitors condominium sales by collecting data on location, list price, sale price, and number of days it takes to sell each unit. Each condominium is classified as Gulf View if it is located directly on the Gulf of Mexico or No Gulf View if it is located on the bay or a golf course, near but not on the Gulf. Sample data from the Multiple Listing Service in Naples, Florida, provided recent sales data for 40 Gulf View condominiums and 18 No Gulf View condominiums. Prices are in thousands of dollars. The data are shown in the following table.
