QUESTION 14 You have measured 35 different quantities (X, Y, of each a large (n-1000) collection of soil samples. You wish to see which quantities are correlated, so you test for correlation between all possible pairs of X Y, etc. Even if none of these quantities are actually correlated, what is the expected number of false positives that you will see at at a 0.05 ?

Which of the following is not a cause of perfect multicollinearity? Select all that apply. One of the explanatory variables is equal to half of another explanatory variable for 100% of the observations in the sample. The correlation between two of the explanatory variables is 1.00. One of the explanatory variables is equal to half of another explanatory variable for 20% of the observations in the sample. A dummy variable for male is included at the same time as a dummy variable for non-male. One of the regressors is X and another regressor is X².
What is indicated by a Pearson correlation of r = +1.00 between X and Y? Question 1 options: Each time X increases, there is a perfectly predictable increase in Y Every change in X causes a change in Y Every increase in X causes an increase in Y All of the other 3 choices occur with a correlation of +1.00.
© 44mins X What is the relationship between the attendance at a major league ball game and the total number of runs scored? Attendance figures (in thousands) and the runs scored for 12 randomly selected games are shown below. Attendance 50 13 54 34 31 60 60 31 42 48 59 Runs 7 5 4 3 8 10 4 6 7 7 a. Find the correlation coefficient: r = Round to 2 decimal places. b. The null and alternative hypotheses for correlation are: Ho: ?v = 0 H1: ?v + 0 The p-value is: (Round to four decimal places) c. Use a level of significance of a = 0.05 to state the conclusion of the hypothesis test in the context of the study. O There is statistically significant evidence to conclude that a game with a higher attendance will have more runs scored than a game with lower attendance. O There is statistically significant evidence to conclude that there is a correlation between the attendance of baseball games and the runs scored. Thus, the regression line is useful. O There is statistically insignificant…
The following information represents the scores that 14 students obtained (X) in Test-1 and in Test-2 (y) by 14 students: Ty-876. Ey? - 65850, Ex= 854, Ex2- 64222, and Exy - 64346 The sample correlation coefficient is: O 0.943 O 0.7968 O 0.8501 O 0.8034
Two pair misread values. A computer while calculating the correlation coefficient.between two variables x and y obtained the following constants : N=25, Ex=125, Ex=650, Ey-100, Ey=460, Exy=508. It was however later discovered at the time of checking that be had copied down two pairs of observations as (6, 14), (8, 6) while the correct values were (8, 12), (6, 8). Obtain the correct value of the correlation coefficient between x and y.
1. The first of two samples consists of 23 pairs and gives a correlation of 0-5 while the second of 21 pairs has a correlation of 0-8. Are these values significantly different?
Question 8 Dr. Jameson wanted to know if IQ scores differed between male and female participants in his study. He gave 28 participants an IQ test and then compared IQ scores for gender differences. He hypothesized that there would be a statistically significant gender difference in IQ scores. Contrary to Dr. Jameson's hypothesis, there were no differences in IQ scores between men and women in his study. Based on the information provided, does this study meet the assumption of normality? Why or why not? We do not know whether it is normally distributed because we do not have information on the population. Yes; it is normally distributed because the sample size is large. No; it is not normally distributed because the small sample size is small. We do not know whether it is normally distributed and the sample size is not at least 30 participants.
The following results were obtained in a study of correlation coefficient between two variables X and Y : n=50, x =10, o,=3; y O, = 2; r. = 0.3. xy || However, on subsequent verification it was found that one value of X = 10 and one value of Y = 6 were inaccurate and hence weedėd out. With the remaining values how is the original value of correlation coefficient affected.
Question 13. (DEATH IS A SURE AND UNCERTAIN EVENT) A doctor noted the Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) of a random sample of 10 patients admitted to his hospital. He found that the average SBP of the 10 patients was 125 mm of Hg with a standard deviation of 80 mm of Hg. Later, two patients died, due to very high SBP values of 250 and 260 mm of Hg. Now he wonders: AMBULANCE Doctor Two dead patie What is the standard deviation of the SBP of the remaining 8 patients?
Question 6 "An electrical firm produces light bulbs that have a length of life that is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 660 hours and a population standard deviation of 25 hours. A new version of light bulbs is being produced and is assumed to be better than the previous version. To test this claim, a random sample of 92 new light bulbs are tested. Would you buy the new version of the light bulb or would you buy the older version if the random sample showed an average of 870 hours? Use a 0.05 level of significance." I will buy the older version until there is sufficient evidence to do otherwise. B I will buy the new version. C I will certainly buy the older version because I am 100% sure it is better. There is no sufficient data to make a sound conclusion.
