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.

Students in a statistics class drew circles of varying diameters and counted how many Cheerios could be placed in the circle. The scatterplot shows the results.

The students want to determine an appropriate equation for the relationship between diameter and the number of Cheerios. The students decide to transform the data to make it appear more linear before computing a least-squares regression line. Which of the following single transformations would be reasonable for them to try?

I. Take the square root of the number of Cheerios.

II. Cube the number of Cheerios.

III. Take the log of the number of Cheerios.

IV. Take the log of the diameter.

(a) I and II

(b) I and III

(c) II and III

(d) II and IV

(e) I and IV

Here are some data on the hearts of various mammals

(a) Make an appropriate scatterplot for predicting heart weight from length. Describe what you see.

(b) Use transformations to linearize the relationship. Does the relationship between heart weight and length seem to follow an exponential model or a power model? Justify your answer.

(c) Perform least-squares regression on the transformed data. Give the equation of your regression line. Define any variables you use.

(d) Use your model from part (c) to predict the heart weight of a human who has a left ventricle 6.8centimeters long. Show your work.

Which of the following statements is supported by these plots?

(a) There is no striking evidence that the assumptions for regression inference are violated.

(b) The abundance of outliers and influential observations in the plots means that the assumptions for regression are clearly violated.

(c) These plots contain dramatic evidence that the standard deviation of the response about the true regression line is not approximately the same everywhere.

(d) These plots call into question the validity of the assumption that 1991mean ratings vary Normally about the least-squares line for each value of the 1989mean ratings.

(e) These plots contain many more points than were used by the researchers to fit the least-squares regression. Obviously, there is a major error present.

A distribution of exam scores has mean 60and standard deviation 18. If each score is doubled, and then 5is subtracted from that result, what will be the mean and standard deviation, respectively, of the new scores?

(a) mean=115and standard deviation=31

(b) mean=115and standard deviation=36

(c) mean=120and standard deviation=6

(d) mean=120and standard deviation=31

(e) mean=120 and standard deviation=36

An old saying in golf is 鈥淵ou drive for show and you putt for dough.鈥� The point is that good putting is more important than long driving for shooting low scores and hence winning money. To see if this is the case, data from a random sample of 69of the nearly 1000players on the PGA Tour鈥檚 world money list are examined. The average number of putts per hole and the player鈥檚 total winnings for the previous season is recorded. A least-squares regression line was fitted to the data. The following results were obtained from statistical software.

Suppose that the researchers test the hypotheses H0:尾=0: Ha:尾<0. The value of the t statistic for this test is

(a)2.61

(b)2.44

(c)0.081

(d)-2.44

(e) -20.24
