A some association On-Line Discount Broker Survey polls members on their experiences with discount brokers. As part of the survey, members were asked to rate the quality of the speed of execution with their broker as well as provide an overall satisfaction rating for electronic trades. Possible responses (scores) were no opinion (0), unsatisfied (l), somewhat satisfied (2), satisfied (3), and very satisfied (4). For each broker summary scores were computed by calculating a weighted average of the scores provided by each respondent. A portion of the survey results follow

Brokerage Speed Satisfaction
Scottrade, Inc. 3.6 3.3
Charles Schwab 3.2 3.4
Fidelity Brokerage Services 3.7 3.8
TD Ameritrade 2.7 2.5
E*Trade Financial 3.8 3.3
Vanguard Brokerage Services 3.2 3.6
USAA Brokerage Services 3.8 3.9
Thinkorswim 2.7 2.9
Wells Fargo Investments 2.9 2.4
Interactive Brokers 3.9 3.4
Zecco.com 3.6 3.1

b. What does the scatter diagram developed in part (a) indicate about the relationship between the two variables? The scatter diagram indicates a _______ linear relationship between speed of execution rating and overall satisfaction rating for electronic trades.
c. Develop the least squares estimated regression equation. Enter negative value as negative number.
Satisfaction = ____ + ____ speed?
(to 4 decimals)

d. Provide an interpretation for the slope of the estimated regression equation (to 4 decimals).
The slope of the estimated regression line is approximately ______. So, a one unit ________in the speed of execution rating will increase the overall satisfaction rating by approximately_______points.

e. Suppose Thinkorswim developed new software to increase their speed of execution rating. If the new software is able to increase their speed of execution rating from the current value of 2.7 to the average speed of execution rating for the other 10 brokerage firms that were surveyed, what value would you predict for the overall satisfaction rating? ____________ (to 3 decimals)

This question is for my last discussion topic in Math225N - Statistical Reasoning for the Health Sciences at Chamberlain. We rely heavily on statistics and statistical research in the health and helping professions. The outcomes from this work help us identify the best methods for helping and caring for clients and patients. Discuss at least two concepts from the course that you can use in your future career. Be sure to state the concept, how you would use it, and why that approach would be the best approach for the situation.

In my safe is a sheet of paper with two shapes drawn on it in colored crayon. One is a circle, and the other is a square. Each shape is drawn in a single color. Suppose you believe me when I tell you that, if the circle is green, then the square is orange. What do you therefore know about the truth value of the following statements?

1. The circle is not green or the square is orange.

2. The circle and the square are both green.

2. The circle is red if and only if the square is not yellow.

3. The circle is red if and only if the square is yellow.

4. The square is yellow.

The huge market that exists for golf balls can be partially attributed to the fact that golfers lose them at an average rate of 3 per 18-hole round. Assume that the number of golf balls lost in an 18-hole round is distributed as a Poisson random variable. What is the probability that: No balls will be lost in an 18-hole round? 5 or fewer will be lost in an 18-hole round? 2 or fewer will be lost in a 9-hole round? 3 or fewer will be lost in a 36-hole round?

Q.4 A researcher is interested in whether people’s level of loneliness would vary as a function of their relationship status (single vs. in a relationship), and how such difference might depend on whether people own a pet or not. She recruited a group of participants, asking them about their relationship status, pet ownership, and the perceived level of loneliness. The data are as below, with a higher number denoting greater level of loneliness:

Single/ no pet In a Relationship/ no pet Single/ have pet In a Relationship/ have pet
Case 1 8 4 5 3
Case 2 7 2 4 4
Case 3 8 3 4 2
Case 4 6 4 3 3

Conduct a proper statistical test by hand calculation to test the hypotheses in b., with 5% as the level of significance (α). (For this exercise, the data assumptions of your chosen statistical test can be taken as reasonably met.) Show your calculation formulae and steps. In case you decide to conduct an ANOVA, you are not required to conduct any post-hoc comparisons. Decide whether to reject the null hypothesis or not for each effect and state the basis of your decision.

GAGE R & R EXERCISE in this example, we do a gage R&R study on two data sets: one in which measurement system variation contributes little to the overall observed variation (GAGEAIAG.MTW), and one in which measurement system variation contributes a lot to the overall observed variation (GAGE2.MTW). For comparison, we analyze the data using both the ANOVA and the Xbar and R method. The GAGEAIAG data was taken from Measurement Systems Analysis Reference Manual, 3rd edition. (Chrysler, Ford, General Motors Supplier Quality Requirements Task Force). Ten parts were selected that represent the expected range of the process variation. Three operators measured the ten parts, three times per part, in a random order. For the GAGE2 data, three parts were selected that represent the expected range of the process variation. Three operators measured the three parts, three times per part, in a random order Part 1: Use the ANOVA method with GAGEAIAG data 1 Open the worksheet GAGEAIAG.MTW. 2 Choose Stat > Quality Tools > Gage Study > Gage R&R Study (Crossed). 3 In Part numbers, enter Part. 4 In Operators, enter Operator. 5 In Measurement data, enter Measurement. 6 Under Method of Analysis, choose ANOVA. 7 Click Options.
