The table contains real data for the first two decades of AIDS reporting.

Adults and Adolescents only, United States
Year # AIDS cases diagnosed # AIDS deaths
Pre-1981 91 29

1.) Graph “year” versus “# AIDS cases diagnosed” (plot the scatter plot). Do not include pre-1981 data. In excel using formula's

2.) Find the regression equation, Interpret slope, Find r. and Describe linear correlation.

3.) When x = 1985, ŷ = _____

When x = 1990, ŷ =_____

When x = 1970, ŷ =______ Why doesn’t this answer make sense?

4.)  What does the correlation imply about the relationship between time (years) and the number of diagnosed AIDS cases reported in the U.S.?

Expert Solution

1) Scatter diagram:

2) Regression equation: y = 1,749.8x - 3,448,225

Formula Ref:

3.) When x = 1985, ŷ

y = 1,749.78x - 3,448,225.05

y = 1,749.78x - 3,448,225.05

y =1749.78*1985-3448225.05

y = 25088

When x = 1990, ŷ

y =1749.78*1990-3448225.05

y = 33837

When x = 1970, ŷ

y =1749.78*1990-3448225.05

y = -1158

It doesn't make sense because pre 1981 values are consolidated and added as total 91. but here when we calcualate for the 1970, getting negative value which is not possible

4.)  What does the correlation imply about the relationship between time (years) and the number of diagnosed AIDS cases reported in the U.S.?

There is moderate relationship between Years and the diagnosed AIDS cases reported. because t value shows 0.45

correlations between 0.45 and 0.75 are moderate, and those below 0.45 are considered weak.
