Size of the bill (in dollars)

Tip

Size of the tip (in dollars)

Credit

Paid with a credit card? n or y

Guests

Day

Day of the week: m=Monday, t=Tuesday, w=Wednesday, th=Thursday, or f=Friday

Server

Code for specific waiter/waitress: A, B, or C

PctTip

A study was done to look at the relationship between number of vacation days employees take each year and the number of sick days they take each year. The results of the survey are shown below.

Vacation Days 2 15 4 5 2 0 3 3 11
Sick Days 4 0 4 5 6 10 5 3 0
  1. Find the correlation coefficient: r=r=   Round to 2 decimal places.
  2. The null and alternative hypotheses for correlation are:
    H0:H0: ? r ρ μ  == 0
    H1:H1: ? r ρ μ   ≠≠ 0
    The p-value is:    (Round to four decimal places)
  3. Use a level of significance of α=0.05α=0.05 to state the conclusion of the hypothesis test in the context of the study.
    • There is statistically significant evidence to conclude that there is a correlation between the number of vacation days taken and the number of sick days taken. Thus, the regression line is useful.
    • There is statistically insignificant evidence to conclude that there is a correlation between the number of vacation days taken and the number of sick days taken. Thus, the use of the regression line is not appropriate.
    • There is statistically significant evidence to conclude that an employee who takes more vacation days will take more sick days than an employee who takes fewer vacation days.
    • There is statistically significant evidence to conclude that an employee who takes more vacation days will take fewer sick days than an employee who takes fewer vacation days .
  4. r2r2 =  (Round to two decimal places)
  5. Interpret r2r2 :
    • Given any group with a fixed number of vacation days taken, 71% of all of those employees will take the predicted number of sick days.
    • 71% of all employees will take the average number of sick days.
    • There is a large variation in the number of sick days employees take, but if you only look at employees who take a fixed number of vacation days, this variation on average is reduced by 71%.
    • There is a 71% chance that the regression line will be a good predictor for the number of sick days taken based on the number of vacation days taken.
  6. The equation of the linear regression line is:   
    ˆyy^ =  + xx   (Please show your answers to two decimal places)
  7. Use the model to predict the number of sick days taken for an employee who took 2 vacation days this year.
    Sick Days =  (Please round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
  8. Interpret the slope of the regression line in the context of the question:
    • As x goes up, y goes down.
    • For every additional vacation day taken, employees tend to take on average 0.53 fewer sick days.
    • The slope has no practical meaning since a negative number cannot occur with vacation days and sick days.
  9. Interpret the y-intercept in the context of the question:
    • If an employee takes no vacation days, then that employee will take 7 sick days.
    • The best prediction for an employee who doesn't take any vacation days is that the employee will take 7 sick days.
    • The y-intercept has no practical meaning for this study.
    • The average number of sick days is predicted to be 7.

Quick question, so say I have a mean of 511, a standard deviation of 124 and then I have less then 650. I do 650-511=139. I take the 139 and divide that by 124 and get 1.12. now with the z table that would become 0.8686, how do I do the z table because i am very confused on how to convert the answer to the z table.

  1. Compute the appropriate point estimate for population (true) mean time taken by this hygienist.
  1. Construct a 98% confidence interval for the true average time taken by this hygienist.

  1. The standard average for all the hygienists for this type of job is 34 minutes. Do the sample data provides evidence that the average time taken by the hygienist is longer than standard average for this job type? Use 1% significance level.

2. Three fair dice are rolled. Let X be the sum of the 3 dice.

(a) What is the range of values that X can have?

(b) Find the probabilities of the values occuring in part (a); that is, P(X = k) for each k in part (a). (Make a table.)

3. Let X denote the difference between the number of heads and the number of tails obtained when a coin is tossed n times.

(a) What are the possible values of X?

(b) Suppose that the coin is fair, and that n = 3. What are the probabilities associated with each of the values that X can take?

7. An urn holds 10 red and 6 green marbles. A fair coin is tossed. If we get heads, two marbles are selected from the urn. Otherwise three marbles are selected. If we have only reds, what is the probability that we selected exactly two marbles?

What are examples of:

1. Sampling Error.

2. Sampling Distribution of Sample Means

3. Central Limit Theorem.

4. Standard Error of the Mean. The standard error of the estimate of the mean is represented by the equation: σ√n Discuss what this equation means, using your own words and explain why we use it. Consider how it relates to the fact that we are making assumptions about the population and not just the sample.
