A new committee has been formed, at a local private high school, with the task of setting entrance requirements for new high school freshmen candidates.

A new committee has been formed, at a local private high school, with the task of setting entrance requirements for new high school freshmen candidates. The goal of the committee is to allow entrance only to students who will likely earn a minimum final GPA of 3.0. The committee is interested in using the Freshmen Aptitude Exam (FAE) as a measure for accepting or rejecting new freshmen candidates (scores from 400 to 1600). To determine the validity of using the FAE score as an indicator of later student success, the committee members examine the previous FAE scores of the current graduating senior class as well as their overall GPAs (scores from 0 to 4) from their four years as students. Test the possible association between the variables and determine the prediction equation for the variables. Their FAE scores from when they were candidates and their final GPA scores are listed below.(pls help! i'll give good review)

(3 pts.) What is the conceptual aspect of each dependent variable? 2. (3 pts.) What is the measured aspect of each dependent variable? 3. (6 pts.) What is the scale of measurement for each dependent variable (nominal, ordinal, interval, or ratio) 4. (1 pt.) What is the alpha level? 5. (5 pts.) What is the exact p-value (taken to 3 decimal places)? 6. (6 pts.) What is the exact Inferential Value (taken to 3 decimal places) and is it a t-value, or an F-value, or an r- value, or a X2-value)? 7. (5 pts.) Was the null hypothesis accepted or rejected? 8. (5 pts.) Were there significant differences or a significant relationship between FAE scores and GPA scores or not (please be specific, significant differences or significant relationship)? 9. (8 pts.) What is the exact regression equation for this data (it should be shown in this format: Y = bX + a, where you have numbers for "b" and "a," as well as decide if you should have a "+" or "-"sign)? The numbers must be taken to 3 decimal places. 10. (8 pts.) If a freshmen candidate scored 1050 on the FAE, what, exactly, would we expect his or her final GPA score to be (taken to 3 decimal places)
