Dr. Lillian​ Fok, a New Orleans​ psychologist, specializes in treating patients who are agoraphobic​ (i.e., afraid to leave their​ homes). The following table indicates how many patients Dr. Fok has seen each year for the past 10 years. It also indicates what the robbery rate was in New Orleans during the same​ year.

The simple linear regression equation that shows the best relationship between the number of patients and year is ​(round your responses to three decimal​ places):

                                               

ModifyingAbove y with carety ​=??????​+??????x where

ModifyingAbove y with carety ​= Dependent Variable and x​ = Independent Variable.

Using linear regression​, the number of patients Dr. Fok will see in year 11​=????? patients​ (round your response to two decimal​ places).

Using linear regression​, the number of patients Dr. Fok will see in year 12​=???? patients ​(round your response to two decimal​ places).

The coefficient of determination for the linear regression model is 0.8621 This shows that there is a (strong) OR (not so strong) relationship between the​ "Number of​ Patients" and​ "Year."

Use the data in the sheet named “Perfect” and answer the following questions:

  1. Decide which linear regression model (with size of plot (P) or size of house (H) or both as independent variable) is the better model in explaining the behaviour of selling prices (SP) and motivate your selection.

The remaining answers must be based on the model that you have selected.

  1. What is the total variation in “Selling Price” that is explained by the independent variable(s) that you have selected?
  2. Is the overall regression model statistically significant? Test at the 5% level of significance using the model that you have selected in a. For this test formulate the appropriate null and alternative hypothesis, determine the region of acceptance, use the appropriate test statistic and draw the statistical and management conclusions.
  3. Write down the linear regression equation in algebraic format using SP for Selling price, P for plot size and H for the size of the house.
  4. Compute the expected Selling price for a house that stands on a plot of 1500 m2 and has a house that covers 245 m2.

Compute the 95% confidence interval of the mean expense for a house that stands on a plot of 1500 m2 and has a house that covers 245 m2.

A person with a cough is a persona non grata on airplanes, elevators, or at the theater. In theaters especially, the irritation level rises with each muffled explosion. According to Dr. Brian Carlin, a Pittsburgh pulmonologist, in any large audience you'll hear about 18 coughs per minute.

(a) Let r = number of coughs in a given time interval. Explain why the Poisson distribution would be a good choice for the probability distribution of r. Coughs are a common occurrence. It is reasonable to assume the events are independent. Coughs are a common occurrence. It is reasonable to assume the events are dependent. Coughs are a rare occurrence. It is reasonable to assume the events are independent. Coughs are a rare occurrence. It is reasonable to assume the events are dependent.

1. A researcher studying the lifespan of a certain species of bacteria. A preliminary sample of 35 bacteria reveals a sample mean of ¯ x = 64 x ¯ = 64 hours with a standard deviation of s = 5.6 s = 5.6 hours. He would like to estimate the mean lifespan for this species of bacteria to within a margin of error of 0.5 hours at a 98% level of confidence. What sample size should you gather to achieve a 0.5 hour margin of error? He would need to sample bacteria.

problem is also a Monte Carlo simulation, but this time in the continuous domain: must use the following fact: a circle inscribed in a unit square

has as radius of 0.5 and an area of ?∗(0.52)=?4.π∗(0.52)=π4.

Therefore, if you generate num_trials random points in the unit square, and count how many land inside the circle, you can calculate an approximation of ?

For this problem, you must create code in python

(A) Draw the diagram of the unit square with inscribed circle and 500 random points, and calculate the value of ?

(B) Without drawing the diagram, calculate the value of ? you would get from 105 trials.

(C) After completing (B), try to get a more accurate value for ? by increasing the number of trials.The results will depend on your machine

Researchers collected data to examine the relationship between pollutants and preterm births in Southern California. During the study air pollution levels were measured by air quality monitoring stations. Specifically, levels of carbon monoxide were recorded in parts per million, nitrogen dioxide and ozone in parts per hundred million, and coarse particulate matter PM10 in μμg/m3. Length of gestation data were collected on 143,196 births between the years 1989 and 1993, and air pollution exposure during gestation was calculated for each birth. The analysis suggested that increased ambient PM10 and, to a lesser degree, CO concentrations may be associated with the occurrence of preterm births.

a. The paragraph above describes an

A. Observational Study
B. Experiment

b. The cases in this research are

A. Each year between 1989 and 1993
B. Each type of pollution measured by air quality monitoring stations
C. Each birth between 1989 and 1993

c. What is the research question?

A. How can expectant mothers avoid air pollution?
B. How much air pollution is there in Southern California?
C. How prevalent was preterm birth during the years 1989 to 1993?
D. Are preterm births associated with air pollution levels?

d. What is the population of interest?

A. All air quality monitoring stations
B. All years for which air quality has been measured
C. All human babies
D. All environmental pollutants

e. What is the sample?

A. The 143,196 births
B. All air quality monitoring stations
C. The pollution measurements for the 4 pollutants
D. The years between 1989 and 1993

f. Can the findings of this study be used to establish casual relationships?

A. No, because this is an observational study
B. Yes, because air pollution is bad for human health
C. No, because this is an experiment
