QUESTION 4
In an effort to reduce energy costs, a major university has installed more efficient lights as well as automatic sensors that turn the lights off when no movement is present in a room. Historically, the cost of lighting an average classroom for 1 week has been $265. To determine whether the changes have signficantly reduced costs, the university takes a sample of 50 classrooms. They find that the average cost for 1 week is $247 with a standard deviation of $60. When testing the hypothesis (at the 5% level of significance) that the average energy use has decreased from the past, what is your conclusion concerning the null hypothesis?
Reject the null hypothesis

- Question 4 Listen Your Algebra 2 teacher collected data on the number of days each student was absent during a semester and their score, in percent, on the semester exam. The linear regression equation that models the data is ŷ=97.769-3.828x where x represents the number of days absent and y represents the exam score, in percent. The correlation coefficient is r=-0.707 and the coefficient of determination is =0.500. What are the appropriate interpretations of the slope, y-intercept, correlation coefficient, and coefficient of determination? **HINT** Slope: -3.828 y-intercept: 97.769 Correlation coefficient: r = -0.707 The rate the predicted semester exam score decreases for every stu- dent absence. The predicted % score a student will achieve based on having zero absences in a semester. a. correlation coefficient b. y-intercept c. slope The relationship be- tween the number of days a student was ab- sent and their corre- sponding exam score.arrow_forwardQuestion 8 Central Perk orders their organic coffee filters from a South American supplier that mails them as inexpensively (hence, as slowly) as possible.
