A college newspaper interviews a psychologist about student ratings of the teaching of faculty members. The psychologist says, “The evidence indicates that the correlation between the research productivity and teaching rating of faculty members is close to zero.” The paper reports this as “Professor McDaniel said that good researchers tend to be poor teachers, and vice versa.” Explain why he paper’s report is wrong. Write a statement in plain language (don’t use the word “correlation”) to explain the psychologist’s meaning.

Each of the following statements contains a blunder. Explain in each case what is wrong. (a) “There is a high correlation between the gender of American workers and their income.” (b) “We found a high correlation (r= 1.09) between students’ ratings of faculty teaching and ratings made by other faculty members.” (c) “The correlation between planting rate and yield of corn was found to be r = 0.23 bushel.”

Using the goal seeking feature in Ms excel demonstrate a scenario where an employee earns a basic salary of 50000 KSH.

The overtime payrate per hour is 2500 KSH.

The total overtime amount =hours worked x payrate per hour.

The total gross pay = basicpay+overtime overtime amount.

The Tax payable = 30% of the gross pay.

The netpay = grosspay-tax payable

i) Enter the date in a worksheet to computer the net pay if the overtime hrs are 15

ii) Using the goal seeking feature how many hours do you need for overtime to take home a net pay of 130,000

iii) Using the scenario manager the worst case and the best case scenario of not having overtime and having 80 over hours

iv) Copy the worksheet onto a ms word document for upload
