You ask 6 of your friends how many dogs they have and how many cats they have. You record the data as ordered pairs (0,0), (0,1), (1,1), (2,1), (3,3), (5, 4).
1.Create a scatter plot of the data
2.Draw in an estimate of the least squares regression
3.Calculate the least squares regression line. Write the equation of that line.

You are the owner of a publishing firm and you have a new author that you plan to publish. It is an action/espionage novel. You believe that the author has a good book, but it is her first book and you don’t really know what the sales numbers will look like. As such, you want to do a break even analysis to find out how many books you have to sell in order to get back your initial investment.
The book will be published in paperback sized 6”x9”. The initial set up cost for setting up the press for the book is $900 dollars. After the additional cost for setting up the press, each book will cost $2.19 each to make.

The average American man consumes 9.8 grams of sodium each day. Suppose that the sodium consumption of American men is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 0.8 grams. Suppose an American man is randomly chosen. Let X = the amount of sodium consumed. Round all numeric answers to 4 decimal places where possible.
a. What is the distribution of X? X ~ N(,)
b. Find the probability that this American man consumes between 10.6 and 11.1 grams of sodium per day.
c. The middle 20% of American men consume between what two weights of sodium?

The first few problems ask you to "describe" a random variable, which means:
Give the sample space S (the result of the random experiment, from which the output of the random variable is calculated);
Give RX (you may schematize it if it is very complicated or infinite);
Give fX (you may use fractions or decimals) and show how it was calculated unless it is very simple;

One measure of the state of the economy is the amount of money homeowners pay on their mortgage each month. To determine the extent of change between this year and 5 years ago, a random sample of 150 homeowners was drawn. The monthly mortgage payments for each homeowner for both this year and 5 years ago were recorded. Can we infer that mortgage payments, on average, have risen over the past 5 years?

Recall that "very satisfied" customers give the XYZ-Box video
game system a rating that is at least 42. Suppose that the
manufacturer of the XYZ-Box wishes to use the random sample of 64
satisfaction ratings to provide evidence supporting the claim that
the mean composite satisfaction rating for the XYZ-Box exceeds
42.
(a) Letting µ represent the mean
composite satisfaction rating for the XYZ-Box, set up the null
hypothesis H0 and the alternative hypothesis
Ha needed if we wish to attempt to provide
evidence supporting the claim that µ exceeds 42.
H0: µ (Click to select)=≠≤><≥
42 versus Ha: µ (Click to
select)≥=>≤<≠ 42.
(b) The random sample of 64 satisfaction ratings yields a sample mean of x¯=42.970x¯=42.970. Assuming that σ equals 2.67, use critical values to test H0 versus Ha at each of α = .10, .05, .01, and .001. (Round your answer z.05 to 3 decimal places and other z-scores to 2 decimal places.)

(c) Using the information in part (b),

A researcher is studying the effects of inserting questions into
instructional material for learning. There is doubt whether these
questions would be more effective before or after the corresponding
passage. In addition, the researcher wants to know the impact of
factual and thought provoking questions. Students are randomly
assigned to one of each of the four combination: position of
question (before vs. after the passage) and type of question
(factual vs. thought provoking). After 15 hours of studying under
these conditions, the students are given a test on the content of
the instructional materials. The test scores are below. What can be
concluded with α = 0.01?
