An educator conducted an experiment to test whether new directed reading activities in the classroom will help elementary school pupils improve some aspects of their reading ability. She arranged for a third grade class of 21 students to follow these activities for an 8-week period. A control classroom of 23 third graders followed the same curriculum without the activities. At the end of the 8 weeks, all students took a Degree of Reading Power (DRP) test, which measures the aspects of reading ability that the treatment is designed to improve. Run an independent samples t-test that will test for differences between the treatment and control groups. Also include a 90% Confidence Interval for the mean difference.

With Obesity on the rise, a Doctor wants to see if there is a linear relationship between the Age and Weight and estimating a person's Systolic Blood Pressure. Using that data, find the estimated regression equation which can be used to estimate Systolic BP when using Age and Weight as the predictor variable.
See Attached Excel for Data.

Systolic BP = 31.73252234 + 0.965183151(Age) + 2.666383416(Weight)
Systolic BP = 31.73252234 + 0.938835263(Age) + 0.309246373(Weight)
Systolic BP = 31.73252234 + 0.984797135(Age) + 0.969825398(Weight)
Systolic BP = 11.05638371+ 0.230153049(Age) + 0.120862651(Weight)

2. You are currently saving for your child's college education. The current cost of college is $10,000 a year. You expect that college costs will continue to increase at a rate of 5 percent a year. Your child is scheduled to begin attending a four-year college 10 years from now (i.e., college payments will be made at t=10, t=11, t=12, and t=13). You currently have $25,000 in an account which earns 6 percent after taxes. You would like to have all of the necessary savings by the time your child enters college, and you would like to contribute a constant amount at the beginning of each of the next 10 years in order to provide the necessary amount. (You want to make 10 equal contributions starting in Year 0 and ending at Year 9.) How much should you contribute to the account each year in order to fully provide for your child's education?
