7. The line of best fit is the 8. The point at which the regression line crosses the is referred to as the intercept. 9. The proportionate reduction in error is also called the 10. variables are independent variables that make separate but distinct contributions in the prediction of a dependent variable, as compared with the contributions of other variables. 11. If both the independent and dependent variables are measured as scale variables, then one can use either correlation or...
In Professor Friedman's economics course the correlation between the students' total scores before the final examination and their final examination scores is r-0.56. The pre-exam totals for all students in the course have mean 286 and standard deviation 28, The final exam scores have mean 90 and standard deviation 9. Professor Friedman has lost Julie's final exam but knows that her total before the exam was 320, He decides to predict Julie's final exam score from her pre exam total. Question...
1. Identify the formula for predicting an individual's z score on the dependent variable from their z score on the independent variable. a.) (rxy)(zy) b.) (rxy)(zx) c.) zx/zy d.) (zx)(zy) 2. Data from the 1993 World Almanac and Book of Facts were used to predict the life expectancy for men in a country from the life expectancy of women in that country. The resulting regression equation was Yˆ = 9.32 + 0.79(X). Using the regression equation, what would you predict...

2. A plant distills liquid air to produce oxygen, nitrogen, and argon. The percentage of impurity in the oxygen is thought to be linearly related to the amount of impurities in the air as measured by the pollution count" in part per million (ppm). A sample of plant operating data is shown below. Pollution count (ppm) Purity (%) 933 1145 1.59 92.4 91.7 94 1.08 Purity (%) 946 12 93.6 0.99 0.83 12 932 1.47 1.81 05...
The equation of the regression line between two variables x (independent variable) and y (dependent variable) is given by y-hat = -3x + 2; and the correlation coefficient is r = -.95. The possible x-values range from 1 to 10. Which of the following statements are correct? I. The variable y is strongly positive correlated to the variable x. II. The variable y is strongly negative correlated to the variable x. III. If x = 5, one would predict that...
Hello,
I need help understanding these problems. I already have the
answers for them!
I don't really understand #9. So researcher A is using the
regression line to predict Math SAT from Critical reading score.
Researcher B is using Average Math SAT score to predict Critical
reading score? How would you calculate RMS error for researcher A
and B? I need an explanation please!
10. For this question when you switch critical reading and Math
SAT, the correlation will stay...
for
this workbook u can make up your own data. it doesnt matter
Workbook 2.9. Use SPSS or your choice to create a data file with two variables based on a data set with 40 participants. Your two variables should be continuous measures ranging from o to 50. Again, try to use the whole range of values for both variables but try to enter the data so that they produce a positive relationship thigh score on Variable 1 associated with...
Chapter 12 Project: Linear Regression and Correlation Student Learning Outcomes: • The student will calculate and construct the line of best fit between two variables. • The student will evaluate the relationship between two variables to determine if that relationship is significant Data The table below gives total fuel efficiency (in miles per gallon) and mass (in kilograms) of 20 new model cars with automatic transmissions. We will use this data to determine the relationship, if any, between the fuel...
(1) determine the type of research design used (experiment, quasi-experiment, correlation, archival, naturalistic observation, etc) (2) ) identify the independent (or predictor) variable(s) and the dependent (or criterion) variable(s), (if any). A. A human resource manager was interested in determining if there was a relationship between employee satisfaction and absenteeism. The professor had 220 employees complete a test of job satisfaction and then compared the scores on this test with the number of days each employee missed work over the...
8) (3 pts) Schlitz has been told that every thousand dollars added to the median household income should increase the page cost by less than $750. She wishes to test whether the regression provides convincing evidence to reject this claim. Therefore, she should test a) H0: βINCOME = -0.750 versus Ha: βINCOME < -0.750 b) H0: βINCOME = 0.750 versus Ha: βINCOME < 0.750 c) H0: βINCOME = -0.750 versus Ha: βINCOME ≠ -0.750 d) H0: βINCOME = 0.750 versus...
