Chapter 12: Q. 36 (page 805)

A local investment club that meets monthly has 200members ranging in age from 27to81. A cumulative relative frequency graph is shown below. Approximately how many members of the club are more than60 years of age?

(a) 20 (b) 44 (c) 78 (d) 90 (e) 110

Short Answer

Expert verified

The correct answer is option is (b) =44.

Step by step solution

01

 Step 1: Given Information

We have given that a local investment club that meets monthly has 200 members ranging in age from27to81.

02

 Step 2: Simplify

We draw a line at 60years.

Now, dram a horizontal line through the intersection of the vertical line and the orange curve.

Note that the horizontal line intersects y-axisat a cumulative relative frequency of about 78%.

So, cumulative relative frequency of about 78%. We know that 78%of the members are less then 60years and thus

Given as the 200member is:

22%脳200=44.

Time at the table Refer to Exercise 14.

(a) Construct and interpret a 98% confidence interval for the slope of the population regression line. Explain how your results are consistent with the significance test in Exercise 14.

(b) Interpret each of the following in context:

(i)s

(ii) r2

(iii) The standard error of the slope

Paired tires Exercise 69 in Chapter 8 (page 519 ) compared two methods for estimating tire wear. The first method used the amount of weight lost by a tire. The second method used the amount of wear in the grooves of the tire. A random sample of 16 tires was obtained. Both methods were used to estimate the total distance traveled by each tire. The scatterplot below displays the two estimates (in thousands of miles) for each tire.

Computer output from a least-squares regression analysis of these data is shown below. Assume that the conditions for regression inference are met.

(a) Verify that the 99% confidence interval for the slope of the population regression line is (0.5785,1.001).

(b) Researchers want to test whether there is a difference between the two methods of estimating tire wear.

Explain why an appropriate pair of hypotheses for this test isH0:尾=1versusHa:尾鈮�1

(c) What conclusion would you draw for this significance test based on your interval in part (a)? Justify your answer.

Color words (4.2)Let鈥檚 review the design of the study.

(a) Explain why this was an experiment and not an observational study.

(b) Did Mr. Starnes use a completely randomized design or a randomized block design? Why do you think he chose this experimental design?

(c) Explain the purpose of the random assignment in the context of the study. The data from Mr. Starnes鈥檚 experiment are shown below. For each subject, the time to perform the two tasks is given to the nearest second.

Prey attracts predators Refer to Exercise 3. Computer output from the least-squares regression analysis on the perch data is shown below.

The model for regression inference has three parameters: 伪,尾and 蟽. Explain what each parameter represents in context. Then provide an estimate for each.

Oil and residuals Exercise 59 on page 193 (Chapter 3) examined data on the depth of small defects in the Trans-Alaska Oil Pipeline. Researchers compared the results of measurements on 100 defects made in the field with measurements of the same defects made in the laboratory. The figure below shows a residual plot for the least-squares regression line based on these data. Are the conditions for performing inference about the slope尾 of the population regression line met? Justify your answer.
