A group of n = 25 students was selected at random for studies related to the amount of time they spent for exam preparations. Educators assume that individual records are normally distributed with entirely unknown parameters (μ, σ). Sample summaries (in minutes per week) were obtained as Sample Mean =X =90 and Sample SD =s=20 For hypothesis testing, set significance level = α = 0.01̄ To test whether μ < 100, what critical value (or values) are you going to...

9. The table below gives the number of hours five randomly selected students spent studying and their corresponding midterm exam grades. Using this data, consider the equation of the regression line, yˆ=b0+b1x, for predicting the midterm exam grade that a student will earn based on the number of hours spent studying. Keep in mind, the correlation coefficient may or may not be statistically significant for the data given. Remember, in practice, it would not be appropriate to use the regression...
