Answer to Problem 4PPS
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The table shows the number of field goals and assists for some of the members of the Miami Heat in a recent NBA season.
Make a
Calculation:
The slope of the line is positive and the points are close to the line.
The slope of the line is negative and the points are not close to the line.
No correlation:
There is no obvious pattern of increase or decrease for the given data.
Consider the table provided into textbook.
Graph the data as ordered pairs with the field Goals on the horizontal axis and the assists on the vertical axis. Draw a line through two points that appear to represent the data well, such as
Use maple to graph a scatter plot and a line of fit.
Suppose
The data show a weak positive correlation.
b.
Use two ordered pairs to write a prediction equation.

Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The table shows the number of field goals and assists for some of the members of the Miami Heat in a recent NBA season.
Use two ordered pairs to write a prediction equation.
Calculation:
Find an equation of the line through
Suppose
First find the slope of the line;
Now, find an equation.
Substitute
Hence, the prediction equation is

They are playing a game where they randomly pick a card out of the hat four times, with replacement. Amy thinks that the probability of getting exactly two aces in four picks is equal to the probability of not getting exactly two aces in four picks. Samiha disagrees. She thinks that the probability of not getting exactly two aces is greater. The sample space of possible outcomes is listed below. A represents an ace, and K represents a king.
