Chapter 3.2, Problem 19AE
Video Games and Grade-Point Average Professor Grant Alexander wanted to find a linear model that relates the number of hours a student plays video games each week. , to the cumulative grade-point average. , of the student. He obtained a random sample of 10 full-time students at his college and asked each student to disclose the number of hours spent playing video games and the student’s cumulative grade-point average.
(a) Explain why the number of hours spent playing video games is the independent variable and cumulative grade-point average is the dependent variable.
(b) Use a graphing utility to draw a
(c) Use a graphing utility to find the line of best fit that models the relation between number of hours of video game playing each week and grade-point average. Express the model using function notation.
(d) Interpret the slope.
(e) Predict the grade-point average of a student who plays video games for 8 hours each week.
(f) How many hours of video game playing do you think a student plays whose grade-point average is ?

Brandon works as a statistician for the Toronto Blue Jays, and wants to analyze the relationship between a
player's age and how many strikeouts they accumulate in a season. He takes a sample of 5 Blue Jays players
with age between 25 and 34 and finds there is a linear relationship between their ages and the number of
strikeouts they had in the 2015 season. Here are the numerical summaries for age and the number of
strikeouts:
r = 0.6, age = 25.3, Sage = 3.2, strikeout
=
105.7, S strikeout = 7.48
a) What is the value of b₁, the estimated slope? (Round your answer to 3 decimal places, if needed.)
Answer:
b) What is the value of bo, the estimated intercept? (Round your answer to 3 decimal places, if needed.)
Answer:
c) What is the percent of variation in the number of strikeouts that is explained by age, using linear
regression? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places, if needed.)
Answer:
%
d) Can we use this linear regression to predict the number of strikeouts for a player age at 37?
No,…
To investigate the relationship between yield of soybeans and the amount of fertilizer used, a researcher divides a field into eight plots of equal size and applies a different amount of fertilizer to each plot. The table shows the yield of soybeans and the amount of fertilizer used for each plot. A scatterplot of the data confirms that there is a linear association. Predict the yield of soybeans for 2.75 pounds of fertilizer. Round answer to the nearest whole number. Do not include the label in your answer.

- One of the biggest changes in higher education in recent years has been the growth of online universities. The Online Education Database is an independent organization whose mission is to build a comprehensive list of the top accredited online colleges. The following table shows the retention rate (%) and the graduation rate (%) for 29 online colleges.a). Use Excel Data Analysis Tool – Regression to get the relationship between the two variables;b). Create a scatter diagram for the two variables and display regression equation and R square on chart, then explain the relationship between the variables;c). Did the estimated regression equation provide a good fit?d). Suppose you were the president of South University. After reviewing the results, would you be able to use the regression result for forecasting.

The clinical trial investigates whether adverse responses increase with larger drug doses. Subjects receive either a placebo or one of four drug doses (1, 2, 3, or 4 units). An adverse response is recorded as Adverse = 'Yes'; otherwise, it is recorded as Adverse = 'No'. The number of subjects for each drug dose and response combination is contained in the variable Count. (a) Construct a contingency table that corresponds to the data set created above. What type of variable is Dose? (B) Compute the sample proportions of adverse responses at each dose level. Do you observe any trend in the proportion of adverse responses with respect to dose level? (C) Conduct a Cochran-Armitage trend test at the 5% significance level to address the interests of the trial.arrow_forwardIn order for a linear model between variable and age to be appropriate, the plot must have no pattern right?arrow_forward
