Question

Transcribed Image Text:We want to investigate the correlation between
concentration of Se (Selenium) in the teeth and
its concentration in the liver in 20 Beluga
Whales.
240
220
We suspect that the higher the
the higher the
concentration in the liver,
concentration in the teeth. A plot of the data is
given at right, and the following summary
statistics are given for these data:

X = 20.68 Sy= 13.45
y =
= 156.60
Sy
= 36.06
140
0.54 Se
= 31.25
r =
120
Before actually computing its value (that is, by just
looking at the scatterplot), how do we know that
r > 0 (rather than r = 0 or r<0)?

Liver Se (ug/g dry wt)
Calculate the regression line Y = bo + bịX (that is, find the slope b, and y-intercept bo) for
Tooth Se (variable Y in the line) as a function of Liver Se (variable X in the line).
Interpret the value of the slope b, that you just found. That is, what does b, tell you about
how Tooth Se and Liver Se are related? (And don't just write that it's the slope.)
Tooth Se (ng/g dry wt)

- A researcher is interested in whether the variation in the size of human beings is proportional throughout each part of the human. To partly answer this question they looked at the correlation between the foot length (in millimeters) and height (in centimeters) of 30 randomly selected adult males. The data is provided below. Use Excel to calculate the correlation coefficient r between the two data sets. Round your answer to two decimal places.

After sampling 10 wells in one of the districts you find the values are, in mg/L: 6.4, 2.1, 1.4, 0.7, 6.8, 3.2, 2.7, 1.6, 4.9, 1.2. Your assistant plots the data from the second set of wells and the histogram of data from that sample looks pretty much the same as for your data set.
