Chapter 12: Q.36 (page 718)

Graph 鈥測ear鈥� versus 鈥�# flu cases diagnosed鈥� (plot the scatter plot). Do not include pre-1981 data.

Short Answer

Expert verified

There is a positive association between the variables as slopes go upward from left to right. Also, the relationship is linear because points fall close to the straight line.

Step by step solution

01

Given Information

We have to draw a scatter diagram

02

MINITAB Procedure:

Use MINITAB to draw the scatter plot of given data.

MINITAB procedure:

Step 1: Choose Graph > Scatter plot

Step 2: Choose Simple, and then click OK.

Step 3: Under Yvariables, enter a column of Y(Number of AIDS deaths).

Step 4: Under Xvariables, enter a column of X(Number of AIDS cases diagnosed).

Step 5: Click OK.

03

Scatter Diagram 

Click OK to get scatter diagram plot as below

The above graph shows that there is a positive association between the variables as slopes go upward from left to right. Also, the relationship is linear because points fall close to the straight line.

A researcher is investigating whether population impacts homicide rate. He uses demographic data from Detroit, MI to compare homicide rates and the number of the population that are white males.

a. Use your calculator to construct a scatter plot of the data. What should the independent variable be? Why?

b. Use your calculator鈥檚 regression function to find the equation of the least-squares regression line. Add this to your

scatter plot.

c. Discuss what the following mean in context.

i. The slope of the regression equation

ii. The y-intercept of the regression equation

iii. The correlation \(r\)

iv. The coefficient of determination \(r2\).

Amelia plays basketball for her high school. She wants to improve to play at the college level. She notices that the number of points she scores in a game goes up in response to the number of hours she practices her jump shot each week. She records the following data:

X(hours practicing jump shot)Y(points scored in a game)
515
722
928
1031
1133
1236

Construct a scatter plot and state if what Amelia thinks appears to be true.

A credit card company charges \(10when a payment is late, and \)5a day each day the payment remains unpaid.

Find the equation that expresses the total fee in terms of the number of days the payment is late.

64. What is the process through which we can calculate a line that goes through a scatter plot with a linear pattern?

For a given line of best fit, you compute that r = 0 using n = 100 data points. Can the line be used for prediction? Why or why not?
