Textbook Question
Chapter 7, Problem 7P
The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) and the Standard & Poor’s 500 (S&P 500) indexes are used as measures of overall movement in the stock market The DJIA is based on the price movements of 30 large companies: the S&P 500 is an index composed of 500 stocks. Some say the S&P 500 is a better measure of stock market performance because it is broader based. The closing price for the DJIA and the S&P 500 for 15 weeks, beginning with January 6, 2012, follow (Barron’s web site, April 17, 2012).
- a. Develop a scatter chart for these data with DJIA as the independent variable. What does the scatter chart indicate about the relationship between DJIA and S&P 500?
- b. Develop an estimated regression equation showing how S&P 500 is related to DJIA. What is the estimated regression model?
- c. What is the 95% confidence interval for the regression parameter β1? Based on this interval, what conclusion can you make about the hypotheses that the regression parameter β1 is equal to zero?
- d. What is the 95% confidence interval for the regression parameter β0? Based on this interval, what conclusion can you make about the hypotheses that the regression parameter β0 is equal to zero?
- e. How much of the variation in the sample values of S&P 500 does the model estimated in part (b) explain?
- f. Suppose that the closing price for the DJIA is 13,500. Estimate the closing price for the S&P 500.
- g. Should we be concerned that the DJIA value of 13,500 used to predict the S&P 500 value in part (f) is beyond the
range of the DJIA used to develop the estimated regression equation?

Task Description:
Read the following case study and answer the questions that follow.
Ella is a 9-year-old third-grade student in an inclusive classroom. She has been diagnosed with Emotional and Behavioural Disorder (EBD). She has been struggling academically and socially due to
challenges related to self-regulation, impulsivity, and emotional outbursts. Ella's behaviour includes frequent tantrums, defiance toward authority figures, and difficulty forming positive relationships with peers. Despite her challenges, Ella shows an interest in art and creative activities and demonstrates strong verbal skills when calm.
Describe 2 strategies that could be implemented that could help Ella regulate her emotions in class (4 marks)
Explain 2 strategies that could improve Ella’s social skills (4 marks)
Identify 2 accommodations that could be implemented to support Ella academic progress and provide a rationale for your recommendation.(6 marks)

Question 2: When John started his first job, his first end-of-year salary was $82,500. In the following years, he received salary raises as shown in the following table.
Fill the Table: Fill the following table showing his end-of-year salary for each year. I have already provided the end-of-year salaries for the first three years. Calculate the end-of-year salaries for the remaining years using Excel. (If you Excel answer for the top 3 cells is not the same as the one in the following table, your formula / approach is incorrect) (2 points)
Geometric Mean of Salary Raises: Calculate the geometric mean of the salary raises using the percentage figures provided in the second column named “% Raise”. (The geometric mean for this calculation should be nearly identical to the arithmetic mean. If your answer deviates significantly from the mean, it's likely incorrect. 2 points)
