Multiple choice: Interpret r One can interpret r = 0.30 or the corresponding r2 = 0.09 as follows:

  1. a. A 30% reduction in error occurs in using x to predict y.
  2. b. A 9% reduction in error occurs in using x to predict y compared to using ˉy to predict y.
  3. c. 9% of the time ˆy=y.
  4. d. y changes 0.3 unit for every one-unit increase in x.
  5. e. x changes 0.3 standard deviations when y changes 1 standard deviation.

Customers experiencing technical difficulty with their Internet cable service may call an 800 number for technical support. It takes the technician between 30 seconds and 11 minutes to resolve the problem. The distribution of this support time follows the uniform distribution. Required: a. What are the values for a and b in minutes? Note: Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 1 decimal place. b-1. What is the mean time to resolve the problem? b-2. What is the standard deviation of the time? c. What percent of the problems take more than 5 minutes to resolve? d. Suppose we wish to find the middle 50% of the problem-solving times. What are the end points of these two times?
