The following equation explains weekly hours of television viewing by a child in terms of the child's age, mother's education, father's education, and number of siblings: tvhours" Bo + B1age + B2age? + B3motheduc + Bafatheduc + B5sibs + u We are worried that tvhours* is measured with error in our survey. Let tvhours denote the reported hours of television viewing per week. (a) What do the classical errors-in-variables (CEV) assumptions require in this application? (b) Do you think the CEV assumptions are likely to hold? Explain.

Trying to determine the number of students to accept is a tricky task for universities. The Admissions staff at a small private college wants to use data from the past few years to predict the number of students enrolling in the university from those who are accepted by the university.

Researchers wondered whether the size of a person's brain was related to the individual's mental capacity. They selected a sample of 5 females and 5 males and measured their MRI image pixel counts and IQ scores. Females Males MRI IQ MRI IG The data is reported to the right.

Are MRI count and IQ linearly related? Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box to complete your choice. (Round to three decimal places as needed.) A. Yes, MRI count and IQ are linearly related since the linear correlation coefficient is O B. No. MRI count and IQ are not…
