In order to have correlation with 95% confidence (5% significance), what is the critical r-value that we would like to have?
(Round to three decimal places for all answers on this assignment.)
RBI vs. Salary
Complete a correlation analysis, using RBI's as the x-value and salary as the y-value.
Correlation coefficient:
Regression Equation:=
Do you have significant correlation? ? Yes No
HRvs. Salary
Complete a correlation analysis, using HR'sas the x-value and salary as the y-value.
Correlation coefficient:
Regression Equation:=
Do you have significant correlation? ? Yes No
AVGvs. Salary
Complete a correlation analysis, using AVGas the x-value and salary as the y-value.
Correlation coefficient:
Regression Equation:=
Do you have significant correlation? ? Yes No
Prediction
Based on your analysis, if you had to predict a player's salary, which method would be the best? Select an answer Regression equation with RBI's Regression equation with HR's Regression equation with AVG The average of the 25 salaries
Using that method, predict the salary for JD Martinez. His stats were:
RBI: 105
HR: 36
AVG: 0.304
Based on your analysis, his predicted salary would be: $ million
His actual salary was $23.750 million.
2. Based on the data shown below, a statistician calculates a linear model =-0.94+17.70.
x | y |
---|---|
3 | 15.95 |
4 | 12.6 |
5 | 13.15 |
6 | 12.2 |
7 | 10.35 |
8 | 10.9 |
Use the model to estimate the -value when =7 = Round your answer to two decimal places.
3. A regression was run to determine if there is a relationship between hours of TV watched per day (x) and number of situps a person can do (y). The results of the regression were:y=ax+b a=-1.046 b=36.204 r2=0.966289 r=-0.983 n=27 Use this to predict the number of situps a person who watches 2 hours of TV can do (to one decimal place)
4. Suppose that you run a correlation and find the correlation coefficient is -0.787 and the regression equation is ^=-2.5+36.4. The mean of your x-values was 5.2. The mean of your y-values was 23.7. If the critical value is .606, use the appropriate method to predict the value when is 3.2.
5. Run a regression analysis on the following bivariate set of data with y as the response variable.
x | y |
---|---|
19.2 | 42.6 |
26.4 | 31.4 |
13.9 | 41.9 |
37.3 | 19.2 |
31.5 | 39 |
29.9 | 40.5 |
36.3 | 37.2 |
19.4 | 38.5 |
37 | 41.4 |
29.6 | 31.8 |
24 | 36.3 |
17.9 | 36 |
Verify that the correlation is significant at an =0.05. If the correlation is indeed significant, predict what value (on average) for the explanatory variable will give you a value of 28.8 on the response variable. What is the predicted explanatory value? x = (Report answer accurate to one decimal place.)
6. A random sample of 22 pre-school children was taken. The child was asked to draw a nickel. The diameter of that nickel was recorded. Their parent's incomes (in thousands of $) and the diameter of the nickel they drew are given below.

Test the claim that there is significant correlation at the 0.01 significance level. Retain at least 3 decimals on all values. a) Identify the correct alternative hypothesis.
- 1:
- 1:=0
- 1:0
- 1:0
- 1:0
b) The test statistic value is: c) The critical value is: d) Based on this, we
- Reject 0
- Fail to reject 0
e) Which means
- There is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim
- There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim
- There is not sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim
- The sample data supports the claim
f) The regression equation (in terms of income ) is: ^= g) To predict what diameter a child would draw a nickel given family income, it would be most appropriate to:
- Use the regression equation
- Use the mean coin size
- Use the P-Value
- Use the residual
