For 50 randomly selected speed dates, attractiveness ratings by males of their female date partners (x) are recorded along with the attractiveness ratings by females of their male date partners (y); the ratings range from 1 to 10. The 50 paired ratings yield x= 6.4, y = 5.9, r= - 0.265, P-value = 0.063, and y = 7.95 – 0.316x. Find the best predicted value of y (attractiveness rating by female of male) for a date in which the attractiveness rating by the male of the female is x= 7. Use a 0.01 significance level. The best predicted value of y when x = 7 is (Round to one decimal place as needed.)

To illustrate the effects of driving under the influence (DUI) of alcohol, a police officer brought a DUI simulator to a local high school. Student reaction time in an emergency was measured with unimpaired vision and also while wearing a pair of special goggles to simulate the effects of alcohol on vision. For a random sample of nine teenagers, the time (in seconds) required to bring the vehicle to a stop from a speed of 60 miles per hour was recorded. Complete parts (a) and (b). Note: A normal probability plot and boxplot of the data indicate that the differences are approximately normally distributed with no outliers. Click the icon to view the data table. (a) Whether the student had unimpaired vision or wore goggles first was randomly selected. Why is this a good idea in designing the experiment? A. This is a good idea in designing the experiment because it controls for any "learning" that may occur in using the simulator. B. This is a good idea in designing the experiment because…

A researcher found that the two groups (n=25 in each group) they tested were significantly different from each other with a t-value of 2.91, which has a corresponding p-value of p=.06. For this study, report the statistics in APA format.

A researcher is interested in testing the relationship between smoking and BMI (kg/m2) in adults aged 30-45. In order to test this association, the researcher divides smoking into currently more than a pack a day, currently less than a pack a day, and never smokers. The following table represents the BMIs for each participant enrolled by their respective smoking category. Current Smoker (≥1pack/day) Current Smoker (<1 pack/day Never Smoked 26.7 29.4 22.1 29.4 28.6 30.4 24.3 27.4 21.3 28.4 23.2 26.4 21.6 20.1 19.7 27.4 20.6 19.8 26.8 19.7 21.6 36.4 19.6 22.3 31.5   21.6 24.3   27.4 21.5     *Continue as though all assumptions for ANOVA are met. A) Calculate the MSW and MSB for the data represented above. B) Carry out a formal test for a one-way analysis of variance among the groups and interpret your results.

Researchers suspect that 18% of all high school students smoke at least one pack of cigarettes a day. At Wilson High School, with an enrolment of 300 students, a study found that 50 students smoked at least one pack of cigarettes a day. At a = 0.04, test the claim that 18% of all high school students smoke at least one pack of cigarettes a day.

Which of the following is the equation of the relationship between the predictor variable (x) and the response variable (y)? A    y = 25.707 + 0.9887xB    y = 29.796 + 0.5897xC    y = 25.707 + 0.5897xD    y = 29.796 + 0.9887x

Find the z-score corresponding to a score of X=50. u=60 and o=5 u=45 and o=5 u=40 and o=5 u=37 and o=5 u=59 and o=5

In a survey of 1150 adult males, 805 said they use the Internet. In a survey of 1050females, 746 said they use the Internet. Atα= 0.05, can you reject the claim that the proportion of Internet users are the same for both groups?

A researcher is interested in hamster wheel-running activity during the summer versus the winter. She suspects that either the hamsters will run less during the winter to conserve energy or they will run more to keep warm. She records the activity of n = 25 hamsters during June, July, and August and compares their running-wheel revolutions per hour to the activity of the same hamsters during December, January, and February. The data are collected, and the results show an average difference score of MD - 5.7 and a sum of squares of SS = 2,851.44. What is the sample standard deviation (s) for the D scores? (one decimal)

It seems that  of engaged women buy a wedding dress at least one size smaller than their current size. Why? Cornell researchers reported an alarming tendency for women who are engaged to sometimes attempt to lose an unhealthy amount of weight prior to their wedding (Neighbors & Sobal, 2008). The researchers found that engaged women weighed, on average, 152.1 pounds. The average ideal wedding weight reported by 227 women was 136.0 pounds. The data below represent the fictional weights of eight women on the day they bought their wedding dress and on the day they got married. Did women lose weight for their wedding day?
