- A weight-loss program wants to test how well their program is working. The company selects a simple random sample of 51 individual that have been using their program for 15 months. For each individual person, the company records the individual's weight when they started the program 15 months ago as an x-value. The subject's current weight is recorded as a y-value. Therefore, a data point such as (205, 190) would be for a specific person and it would indicate that the individual started the program weighing 205 pounds and currently weighs 190 pounds. In other words, they lost 15 pounds. When the company performed a regression analysis, they found a correlation coefficient of r = 0.707. This clearly shows there is strong correlation, which got the company excited. However, when they showed their data to a statistics professor, the professor pointed out that correlation was not the right tool to show that their program was effective. Correlation will NOT show whether or not there is…arrow_forwardTo compare the dry braking distances from 30 to 0 miles per hour for two makes of automobiles, a safety engineer conducts braking tests for 35 models of Make A and 35 models of Make B. The mean braking distance for Make A is 43 feet. Assume the population standard deviation is 4.6 feet. The mean braking distance for Make B is 46 feet. Assume the population standard deviation is 4.5 feet. At α=0.10, can the engineer support the claim that the mean braking distances are different for the two makes of automobiles?
