5) Eli noticed that as the people around him got older, the more medical conditions they seemed to have. He surveyed friends and family members and plotted points on a graph to see if there was a relationship. Then he drew a line of best fit based on the fact that his line went through the most points possible. Decide whether each statement is True or False. True False The line of best fit should be higher to be closer to all of the points. The line of best ft should be lower so that it will go through more points.E Es ine is the best fit. 20 40 60 80 100 120 Age (in years) Number of Medical Conditions

Suppose that a region has two hospitals. Hospital A has about 10 births per day, and hospital B has about 50 births per day. About 50% of all babies are boys, but the percentage who are boys varies at each hospital from day to day. Over the course of a year, which hospital will have more days on which 60% or more of the births are boys? The smaller Hospital A, the larger B, or will Hospital A and B have nearly the same number of days?
The answer to each of the following questions will be one of the points labeled A-H on the scatterplot. (i) Of the sales that received lower-than-predicted tips, which one had the lowest sale amount? [ Select ] ["D", "E", "A", "B", "F", "H", "G", "C"] (ii) Which sale received the best tip, that is, which sale had the tip that was highest above the tip predicted for it? [ Select ] ["A", "B", "D", "E", "C", "G", "H", "F"] (iii) Which data point has the smallest residual? [ Select ] ["A", "C", "F", "H", "D", "G", "B", "E"] (iv) Of E and F, the model makes a better prediction for [ Select ] ["E", "F"] .
Suppose 51 percent of the customers at Pizza Palooza order a square pizza, 73 percent order a soft drink, and 47 percent order both a square pizza and a soft drink. Is ordering a soft drink independent of ordering a square pizza? Yes No
A Gallup survey showed that in March 2011 , 8 of every 25 employers in the United States were adding more workers to their workforce, 9 of 50 were reducing their workforce, and 1 of 2 were keeping it the same. In a metropolitan area there are 1250 employers and of those who will hire, they will hire an average of seven new employees. If the employers who were cutting their workforce in that area were planning on letting go an average of nine workers, what would the net change in jobs for the area be? This metropolitan area would see a ▼net decrease or increase of jobs.
Suppose 60 percent of the customers at Pizza Palooza order a square pizza, 80 percent order a soft drink, and 48 percent order both a square pizza and a soft drink. Is ordering a soft drink independent of ordering a square pizza?
Suppose a certain manufacturing company produces connecting rods for 4- and 6-cylinder automobile engines using the same production line. The cost required to set up the production line to produce the 4-cylinder connecting rods is $2,200, and the cost required to set up the production line for the 6-cylinder connecting rods is $3,300. Manufacturing costs are $12 for each 4-cylinder connecting rod and $16 for each 6-cylinder connecting rod. Hawkins makes a decision at the end of each week as to which product will be manufactured the following week. If a production changeover is necessary from one week to the next, the weekend is used to reconfigure the production line. Once the line has been set up, the weekly production capacities are 6,000 6-cylinder connecting rods and 8,000 4-cylinder connecting rods. Let x4 = the number of 4-cylinder connecting rods produced next week x6 = the number of 6-cylinder connecting rods produced next week s4 = 1 if the production line is set up to…
In an imaginary survey, we wanted to find out if there is a connection between morning sickness and sleeping position. A random sample of 400 people was selected for the survey. The respondent had to define himself as either a morning person or a non-morning person and tell the position in which he typically sleeps.186 respondents classified themselves as morning timers and 214 respondents as non-morning timers.Of the morning owls, 127 reported that they usually sleep on their side, 24 on their stomach and 35 on their back.Of the non-morning people, 156 reported that they usually sleep on their side, 29 on their stomach and 29 on their back.Use the chisq.test() function to test the null hypothesis that there is no connection between morning knitting and sleeping position. What is the p-value? Give the answer to four decimal places. Remember the correct decimal separator.
