Answer to Problem 12RE
The correlation between the scores of Monday and Friday is
Explanation of Solution
It is given in the question that researchers gave students enrolled in a section of basic Spanish a set of vocabulary words to memorize. Thus, the tests were conducted on Monday and Friday and the scores are given in the table given in the question as:
Friday | Monday |
42 | 36 |
44 | 44 |
45 | 46 |
48 | 38 |
44 | 40 |
43 | 38 |
41 | 37 |
35 | 31 |
43 | 32 |
48 | 37 |
43 | 41 |

37 | 36 |
40 | 31 |
41 | 32 |
48 | 39 |
37 | 31 |
36 | 41 |
Thus, to find the correlation between the scores of Monday and Friday we will use the Excel
Thus, the result will be as:
Correlation= | =CORREL(Q45:Q69,R45:R69) |
Correlation= | 0.473 |
Thus, the correlation between the scores of Monday and Friday is

Explanation of Solution
It is given in the question that researchers gave students enrolled in a section of basic Spanish a set of vocabulary words to memorize. Thus, the tests were conducted on Monday and Friday and the scores are given in the table given in the question. Thus, the scatterplot show about the association between the scores that the better they got on Friday they would also probably have a higher score on Monday too. The scatterplot is as follows:

Explanation of Solution
It is given in the question that researchers gave students enrolled in a section of basic Spanish a set of vocabulary words to memorize. Thus, the tests were conducted on Monday and Friday and the scores are given in the table given in the question. Thus, for a student to have a positive residual means that the student did better on Monday test than predicted by the model.
(d)
To explain what would you predict about a student whose Friday score was one standard deviation below average.

Explanation of Solution
It is given in the question that researchers gave students enrolled in a section of basic Spanish a set of vocabulary words to memorize. Thus, the tests were conducted on Monday and Friday and the scores are given in the table given in the question. Thus, we predict about a student whose Friday score was one standard deviation below average that they would probably have a Monday score one standard deviation below average.

Explanation of Solution
It is given in the question that researchers gave students enrolled in a section of basic Spanish a set of vocabulary words to memorize. Thus, the tests were conducted on Monday and Friday and the scores are given in the table given in the question. Thus, to find the equation of the regression line we will select the data in Excel and then go to the insert tab and select the scatterplot from it. Then when the scatterplot is plotted we will go to the quick layout option to select the layout of the equation line and the regression line will appear on the scatterplot as:
Thus, the regression line is as:

- The population mean and standard deviation are given below. Find the required probability and determine whether the given sample mean would be considered unusual. For a sample of n = 65, find the probability of a sample mean being greater than 225 if μ = 224 and σ = 3.5. For a sample of n = 65, the probability of a sample mean being greater than 225 if μ=224 and σ = 3.5 is 0.0102 (Round to four decimal places as needed.)arrow_forward***Please do not just simply copy and paste the other solution for this problem posted on bartleby as that solution does not have all of the parts completed for this problem.

- The following relates to Problems 4 and 5. Christchurch, New Zealand experienced a major earthquake on February 22, 2011. It destroyed 100,000 homes. Data were collected on a sample of 300 damaged homes. These data are saved in the file called CIEG315 Homework 4 data.xlsx, which is available on Canvas under Files. A subset of the data is shown in the accompanying table. Two of the variables are qualitative in nature: Wall construction and roof construction. Two of the variables are quantitative: (1) Peak ground acceleration (PGA), a measure of the intensity of ground shaking that the home experienced in the earthquake (in units of acceleration of gravity, g); (2) Damage, which indicates the amount of damage experienced in the earthquake in New Zealand dollars; and (3) Building value, the pre-earthquake value of the home in New Zealand dollars.

This has prompted me to consider whether we should introduce custom flower bouquets in our shop. We need to decide whether to start offering this new product. There are three options: provide a complete selection of custom bouquets for events like birthdays and anniversaries, start small with just a few ready-made flower arrangements, or do not add flowers. There are also three possible outcomes. First, we might see high demand, and the bouquets could sell quickly. Second, we might have medium demand, with a few sold each week. Third, there might be low demand, and the flowers may not sell well, possibly going to waste. These outcomes…arrow_forwardConsider the state space model X₁ = §Xt−1 + Wt, Yt = AX+Vt, where Xt Є R4 and Y E R². Suppose we know the covariance matrices for Wt and Vt.

- Business Discussarrow_forwardYou want to obtain a sample to estimate the proportion of a population that possess a particular genetic marker. Based on previous evidence, you believe approximately p∗=11% of the population have the genetic marker. You would like to be 90% confident that your estimate is within 0.5% of the true population proportion. How large of a sample size is required?n = (Wrong: 10,603) Do not round mid-calculation.
