Hours of sitting per day significantly predicts the amount of weight gain (in 6 months). The regression equation is WeightGain = 7 + 0.49 * HoursSit. Data are from 120 full-time employees in a public urban university. With a standard error for the slope (SE_b1) of 0.02, what is the 95% confidence interval of the slope.
95%CI:(6.9608, 7.0392), which means the slope is statistically significant.
95%CI:(0.4508, 0.5292), which means the slope is statistically significant.
95%CI:(6.9608, 7.0392), which means the slope isn't statistically significant.
95%CI:(0.4508, 0.5292), which means the slope isn't statistically significant.

n=120, s.e. 0.02, t=1.98(approx),slope=b1=0.49
upper interval=0.49+0.02*1.98=0.5296
lower interval=0.49-0.02*1.98=0.4504
the answer i evaluated is not exactly equal to the answer of the mcq ques but it's approximately equal and the error is negligable
conclusion:
95%CI:(0.4508, 0.5292), which means the slope isn't statistically significant.

Q19- A researcher is testing the hypothesis that baby weight (in pounds) at 6 months after birth is related to breastfeeding (in oz). The regression equation is Weight = 6.5 + .48 * Milk/day. The Standard Error (SE) of the slope is 0.128, and the data were gathered from a sample of 188 babies (Alpha level is set at 0.05.) Which one of the following statements is INCORRECT? The estimated weight of a baby who has 27 oz milk per...
A week-long study of weight change, exercise, and caloric intake was conducted among a sample of members at a local gym. The variables are as follows: DV = weight change in pounds during the week IV1 = mean number of hours of aerobic exercise each day IV2 = mean number of calories eaten each day Note that weight change is defined as the difference between one's weight at the beginning of the week and one's weight at the end of...
The laboratory performed a comparison study of LDL-c values in 40 participants (40 samples are split so are considered matched or pairs) using two different analyzers, the Abbott and the Roche. The Abbott is considered the gold standard method used in many facilities and the Roche is new and of interest due to faster turn-around time and economical factors. The purpose of the comparison study is to determine if there is a significant difference in results by the two methods...
You are curious about the average number of yards Matthew Stafford throws for each game for the Detroit Lions. You randomly select 23 games and see that the average yards per game is 344.5 with a standard deviation of 27.8 yards. You want to create a 95% confidence interval for the true average number of yards per game he throws. What is the margin of error for this estimate? Question 1 options: 1) 1.5833 2) 5.7967 3) 12.0216 4) 9.9538...
The following ANOVA model is for a multiple regression model with two independent variables: Degrees of Sum of Mean Source Freedom Squares Squares F Regression 2 60 Error 18 120 Total 20 180 Determine the Regression Mean Square (MSR): Determine the Mean Square Error (MSE): Compute the overall Fstat test statistic. Is the Fstat significant at the 0.05 level? A linear regression was run on auto sales relative to consumer income. The Regression Sum of Squares (SSR) was 360 and...
1. In the regression equation, the value that gives the amount by which Y changes for one unit in X is called the (a) coefficient of correlation. (b) coefficient of determination. (c) slope. (d) intercept. 2. For any two categorical variables, X and Y, the best way to determine if they are related is to (a) calculate the correlation between X and Y. (b) draw a scatterplot of the X and Y values. (c) make a two-way table of the...
1. Short answer only.a. Suppose that we tell you that we flipped a coin multiple times and it landed heads 75% of the time. Would you be reasonably convinced that this was not a fair coin (where “fair” means that the coin has a .5 probability of landing “heads”)? If so, explain why. If not, describe what additional information you would ask for and explain why it is necessary.b. A college professor asked students in his class to report how...
1. Many companies use a incoming shipments of parts, raw materials, and so on. In the electronics industry, component parts are commonly shipped from suppliers in large lots. Inspection of a sample of n components can be viewed as the n trials of a binomial experimem. The outcome for each component tested (trialD will be that the component is classified as good or defective defective components in the lot do not exceed 1 %. Suppose a random sample of fiver...

explaim the mechanisms amd toxological effects if type 1 diabetes in this article Exposure to arsenic in drinking water is associated with increased prevalence of diabetes. We previously reported an association of diabetes and urinary concentration of dimethylarsinite (DMAS"), a toxic product of arsenic methylation by arsenic (+ 3 oxidation state) methyltransferase (AS3MT). Here we examine associations between AS3MT polymorphism, arsenic metabolism and diabetes. Fasting blood glucose, oral glucose tolerance and self-reported diagnoses were used to identify diabetic individuals. Inorganic...
