Use the least squares method to fit a simple linear model that relates the salary (dependent variable) to education (independent variable).

a- What is your model? State the hypothesis that is to be tested, the decision rule, the test statistic, and your decision, using a level of significance of 5%.

b – What percentage of the variation in salary has been explained by the regression?

c – Provide a 95% confidence interval estimate for the true slope value.

d - Based on your model, what is the expected salary of a new hire with 12 years of education?

e – What is the 95% prediction interval for the salary of a new hire with 12 years of education? Use the fact that the distance value = 0.011286

A common breakfast cereal maker states that the sugar content of one of its popular cereal is approximately 36%.

A dataset by W. J. Braun gives the sugar percentages of 100 samples of 25g of the breakfast cereal, collected by using high performance liquid chromatogramphy.

The first 9 values are shown.

36.3, 33.2, 39, 37.3, 40.7, 38.4, 35.8, 36, 37.9…

We will be looking at the mean percentage of the sugar content of the sample in comparison to that of the stated value from the cereal maker.

Answer the following questions.

What is the population? (state and use the correct notation)

What is the sample?(state and use the correct notation)

What is the response variable? Is it categorical or quantitative?

What is the Sample statistic of interest? What’s the value of the sample statistic?(state and use the correct notation)

In 2018, the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) faced a large budget shortfall, due to state-wide budget cuts. In an effort to balance their budget, CTA raised the fare for one train ride from $2.25 to $2.50 on January 1, 2018. In 2017, prior to the fare hike, annual ridership was about 225 (measured in millions). CTA also conducted a study that year and found that the price elasticity of demand was ???? = −0.5. a) Estimate a linear market demand function for train rides in Chicago. Graph the (inverse) market demand curve and show the price/quantity point where the price of a ride is $2.25. What is the price elasticity of demand at that point? Did the increase in fare increase or decrease revenue in the short run, based on the information provided? Can you justify your answer without actually finding the new revenue? b) What is the predicted number of riders (in millions) in 2018? Show this price/quantity point on your graph. Suppose we also know that in 2018, gas prices were low and Uber and Lyft availability increased in Chicago. Would this information change your predicted ridership for 2018? If so, demonstrate this change on your graph, and explain why your graph is consistent with the information given. (Note: Do not try to find a new value for ridership; just describe whether it would be higher or lower than your original projection).

The landscape of accounting and auditing is changing rapidly because of the advances in technology. I want you to read, think about, and discuss how accounting/auditing is impacted by technology.

Your discussion should focus on how technology is impacting accounting/tax/auditing. It should go beyond analytics. You can use your experience in your work or internship to talk about how CPAs are increasingly relying on technology and what are the implications of such reliance.

1.Please define an argument or inference in your own words. (Hint: An argument is a movement of thought from known to unknown, when expressed in language it is an inference).

2.What is the aim of an "argument" or "inference"?

3.What is the difference between one single sentence (or proposition) and an argument? Explain briefly with the help of an example.

4.Often we make claims like, “It is going to rain tomorrow”, or “I think all apples in this basket are sweet”, can you call them arguments or inference? If yes, explain why, if not explain why.

5.State in your own words the distinction between a “premise” and a “conclusion”.

6.Construct an argument and an non argument (example: "It will rain tomorrow" -- non argument, statement of belief; "It will probably rain tomorrow, as has been cloudy and raining for the last six days, it is raining today, and the weather forecast says that it will rain tomorrow --- argument, supporting my claim).

7.Briefly explain the difference between a the factual claim of an argument and the inferential claim in your own words.

3. Determine if there is sufficient evidence to conclude the average amount of marriages is greater or equal to 2500 in the United States and territories at the .05 level of significance. Mean-2972, Median- 2086, Standard Deviation- 3183, Min- 29, Max-15238
4. Determine if there is sufficient evidence to conclude the average amount of divorces is less than or equal to 4000 in the United States and territories at the 0.10 level of significance. Mean-1527, Median- 1282, Standard Deviation- 1552.29238, Min- 94, Max-7684

e. propose and conduct your own test of hypothesis about the Birth, Death, Marriage and Divorce data that you have been analyzing. Follow these steps (you can make up whatever mean, median, SD, min and max!)

• Clearly state a null and alternative hypothesis
• Give the value of the test statistic
• Report the P-Value
• Clearly state your conclusion (Reject the Null or Fail to Reject the Null)
• Explain what your conclusion means in context of the data

PLEASE TYPE!!!!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One of the support programs of the Government of Canada for small businesses is Canada Small Business Financing Program (CSBFP). Under the CSBFP, the Government of Canada shares the risk of default with the lender by guaranteeing 85 percent of the lender’s net eligible losses. Under this program, small businesses may obtain financing for the following assets: real property (immovables), equipment, and leasehold improvements. A fourth-year finance student at Ryerson is interested in seeing whether this program contributes to the growth of small businesses. She randomly selected 18 IT firms operating in Ottawa that received support from the CSBFP in 2015. She interviewed these companies and recorded the number of employees in 2014 and 2018.

a) Carry out a hypothesis test to determine whether there was any increase in the size of the IT firms operating in Ottawa that received support from the CSBFP in 2015. Explain your approach in choosing a test, state the corresponding conditions, and show by using an appropriate graph if the conditions are met. Copy the graph and use a 5% significance level. You may use MS Excel or Minitab for your calculations.

b)Using a confidence level of 95%, was there an increase in the size of the IT firms operating in Ottawa that received support from the CSBFP in 2015? Calculate the corresponding confidence interval manually and state your conclusion. You may use MS Excel or Minitab for your calculations.

c) Does the confidence interval from part b) confirm your conclusion from part a)? Explain.

Please explain in detail and show work where applicable. Please show any formulas or calculations and explain them.
