Moving __________ standard deviation away from the mean in x moves our estimate r standard deviations away from y. 2) Your Statistics teacher tells you that the correlation between the scores on Exam 1 and Exam 2 was 0.75. (20 points) a) Before answering any questions about correlation what would you like to see? Why?

b) If she adds 10 points to each exam score, how will this change the correlation? c) If she standardizes scores on each exam, how will this affect the correlation?

d) In general, if someone did poorly on Exam 1, are they likely to have done poorly or well on Exam 2? Explain.

e) If someone did poorly on Exam 1, can you be sure that they did poorly on Exam 2 as well? Explain.

3) The following data are the number of years of full-time education and annual salary in thousands of dollars for 15 persons.

Response variable Explanatory/Predictor variable (b) Is there a correlation between education and salary level? Calculate this manually.

(c) If so, is it significant at what level? 4) Given the information, find the equation for the least squares line as well as the correlation coefficient. Calculate both manually and list whether they are statistically significant. (20 points) a) y= r= x y 0 25 1 19 2 16 3 12 4 10

The mean hours spent in clubs he found was 4 with a standard deviation of 3 hours. The data assumes the normal model. (Include a drawing and N ( . Round to the nearest hundredth. This is a big part of your grade!) (30 points) (a) Alan spends 3 hours a week in school clubs. He spends more time in clubs then what proportion of high school seniors? (Picture, N, and work!)

Proportion (b) What proportion of high school seniors spend between 2 and 9 hours a week in clubs? (Picture, N, and work!)

Proportion (c) Erika is looking to get a scholarship to Cornell. In order to get a scholarship, Erika needs to be in the top 15% of high school seniors who participate the most in their schools clubs. How many hours a week does she need to qualify? (Picture, N, and work!)

(15 points) Correlation measures the strength of a linear association between two quantitative variables. The Outlier Condition is a condition that reminds us that outliers can distort the correlation dramatically. Dont assume that the relationship is linear just because the correlation coefficient is high. The line of best fit is the line for which the sum of the squared residuals is smallest, the least squares line. Moving one standard deviation away from the mean in x moves our estimate r standard deviations away from y. 2) Your Statistics teacher tells you that the correlation between the scores on Exam 1 and Exam 2 was 0.75. (20 points) a) Before answering any questions about correlation what would you like to see? Why? We know that scores are quantitative. We should check to see if the Straight Enough Condition and the Outlier Condition applies by looking at the scatterplot of the two scores. b) If she adds 10 points to each exam score, how will this change the correlation? It wont change. c) If she standardizes scores on each exam, how will this affect the correlation? Explain. It wont change. d) In general, if someone did poorly on Exam 1, are they likely to have done poorly or well on Exam 2? Explain. They are likely to have done poorly. The positive correlation means that low scores on Exam 1 are associated with low scores on Exam 2. e) If someone did poorly on Exam 1, can you be sure that they did poorly on Exam 2 as well? Explain. No, the general association is positive but individual performances will vary.
