Conduct a hypothesis for whether consumption and income are linearly related using ? =0.01. The standard error of the slope is 0.144. Slope = 0.75, Intercept = 0, sample:Income 9, 11, 5, 8, 2, 9, 12Consumption 7, 7, 2, 7, 2, 8, 9
Step 1: State the null and alternative hypotheses.Step 2: Choose the significance level.Step 3: Calculate the test statistic.Step 4: Find the critical value(s).Step 5: Compare the test statistic to the critical value(s).Step 6: State the conclusion.
The relationship between IQ level and exam score was estimated as below in a linear format.
(IQ level and exam scores are both measured in points)
Exam score = 1.38 * IQ level - 67.43
(The p-value for the coefficient of IQ level is 0.04.)
Base on the above equation, which of the following statements are true? (Select all that apply. There can be more than one answer.)
The expected exam score of a person with an IQ level of 100 points is 70.57
The expected exam score of a person with an IQ level of 0 points is 1.38 points
As a person’s IQ level increases by 1 point, his or her exam score is expected to increase by 1.38
Five pairs of data are used in determining a regression line ŷ = -3 + 4x. If the five values of the
explanatory variable are 28, 45, 16, 41, and 20, respectively, what is the mean of the five values of the
response variable?
