(b)
Expert Solution
Explanation of Solution
The scatterplot of the data is as follows:
(c)
To determine
To describe the scatterplot in terms of direction, form and strength of the relationship and also find the outliers if any.
(c)
Expert Solution
Explanation of Solution
By looking at the scatterplot of the data, we can say that the relationship seems to be a positive association (slopes upwards), weak (points are far apart) and linear (points seem to roughly follow a line). And also there is one outlier in the right side upwards.

ANALYSIS OF LAST DIGITS Heights of statistics students were obtained by the author as part of an experiment conducted for class. The last digits of those heights are listed below. Construct a frequency distribution with 10 classes. Based on the distribution, do the heights appear to be reported or actually measured? Does there appear to be a gap in the frequencies and, if so, how might that gap be explained?

- Question 3. We want to price a put option with strike price K and expiration T. Two financial advisors estimate the parameters with two different statistical methods: they obtain the same return rate μ, the same volatility σ, but the first advisor has interest r₁ and the second advisor has interest rate r2 (r1>r2). They both use a CRR model with the same number of periods to price the option. Which advisor will get the larger price? (Explain your answer.)arrow_forwardQuestion 5. We consider a put option with strike price K and expiration T. This option is priced using a 1-period CRR model. We consider r > 0, and σ > 0 very large. What is the approximate price of the option?
