1. Compare and contrast the independent t-test and the analysis of variance. How are they similar and how are they different. 2. Come up with two hypothetical examples demonstrating this strategy or come up with "real-world" application using your professional life (i.e. how could you apply this in your work).

1. Using Excel or JMP, construct a scatterplot of value versus the revenue for the 30 MLB teams in 2016.  Provide a copy of the resulting scatterplot. (3 points)

2. Based upon your scatterplot, does it appear that the linear model is a reasonable approximation of the data? Comment on the direction and form of the relationship. (2 points)

3.  Using Minitab provide (or attach) the simple linear regression analysis for predicting a team’s value based upon its revenue. (2 points)

4. State the slope for the simple linear regression analysis and interpret this value in this context. (2 points)

5. State the y-intercept for the simple linear regression analysis and interpret, if applicable. (1 point)

6.  State the standard error of the regression analysis and interpret that value.  (2 points)

7. State the coefficient of determination and interpret the value in this context. (2 points)

8. State the sum of square errors. (1 point)

SSE=504849.5953

9. State the standard error of the slope. (1 point)

SEb(1)=sqrt(504849.5953/30-2)/sqrt(186742.7)=134.277/432.137=0.3107

10. Calculate and interpret the 95% confidence interval for slope.   (2 points)

8.6507+-2.048(0.3107)=8.6507+-0.6363=(8.0144,

   We are 95% confident that the slope of the interval is between 8.0144 and 9.287.

11.  From the coefficient of determination, standard error of regression, and the confidence interval for slope does that model appear to fit well?  Explain.  (2 points)

Assume that a simple random sample has been selected from a normally distributed population and test the given claim. Identify the null and alternative​ hypotheses, test​ statistic, P-value, and state the final conclusion that addresses the original claim.

A coin mint has a specification that a particular coin has a mean weight of 2.5 g. A sample of 33 coins was collected. Those coins have a mean weight of 2.49554 g and a standard deviation of 0.01347 g. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that this sample is from a population with a mean weight equal to 2.5 g. Do the coins appear to conform to the specifications of the coin​ mint?

Identify the test statistic.

t=?

​(Round to three decimal places as​ needed.)

Identify the​ P-value.

The​ P-value is ?.

​(Round to four decimal places as​ needed.)

State the final conclusion that addresses the original claim. Choose the correct answer below.

A. Fail to reject Upper H 0. There is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the sample is from a population with a mean weight equal to 2.5 g.

B. Reject Upper H 0. There is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the sample is from a population with a mean weight equal to 2.5 g.

C. Fail to reject Upper H 0. There is insufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the sample is from a population with a mean weight equal to 2.5 g.

D. Reject Upper H 0. There is insufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the sample is from a population with a mean weight equal to 2.5 g.

Do the coins appear to conform to the specifications of the coin​ mint?

A. No, since the coins seem to come from a population with a mean weight different from 2.49554 g.

B. Yes, since the coins do not seem to come from a population with a mean weight different from 2.5 g.

C. Yes, since the coins do not seem to come from a population with a mean weight different from 2.49554 g.

D. No, since the coins seem to come from a population with a mean weight different from 2.5g.

E. The results are inconclusive because individual differences in coin weights need to be analyzed further.
