6. Passing and Winning in the NFL. The National Football League (NFL) records avariety of performance data for individuals and teams. To investigate the importanceof passing on the percentage of games won by a team, the_following data show theaverage number of passing yards per attempt (Yds/Att) and the percentage of gameswon (WinPct) in a season for a random sample of 10 NFL teams. TeamYds/AttWinPctArizona Cardinals6.550Atlanta Falcons7.163Carolina Panthers7.438Chicago BearsDallas CowboysNew England PatriotsPhiladelphia Eagles6.4507.4508.3817.450Seattle Seahawks6.144St. Louis Rams5.213Tampa Bay Buccaneers6.225a. Develop a scatter diagram with the number of passing yards per attempt on thehorizontal axis and the percentage of games won on the vertical axis.b. What does the scatter diagram developed in part (a) indicate about the relationshipbetween the two variables?c. Develop the estimated regression equation that could be used to predict the percent-age of games won given the average number of passing yards per attempt.d. Provide an interpretation for the slope of the estimated regression equation.e. For the 2011 season, the average number of passing yards per attempt for the Kan-sas City Chiefs was 6.2. Use the estimated regression equation developed in part (c)to predict the percentage of games won by the Kansas City Chiefs. (Note: For the2011 season the Kansas City Chiefs record was 7 wins and 9 losses.) Compare yourprediction to the actual percentage of games won by the Kansas City Chiefs.

What is meant by the sample space of an experiment?
The state highway department is studying traffic patterns on one of the busiest highways in the state. As part of the study, the department needs to estimate the average number of vehicles that pass an intersection each day. One of the department’s officer (Officer A) claims that on average, more than 15,000 cars passing the intersection. On the other hand, Officer B claims that on average, 18,000 cars passing the intersection. Meanwhile, a random sample of 64 days gives a sample mean of 14,205 cars and a sample standard deviation of 1,010 cars. Test both claim at 0.05 level of significance. Use the critical value approach and show the complete calculation steps for each testing. Whose claim is true? a)Testing Officer A’s claim State the hypotheses, find critical value and state the decision rule, compute the test value, make decision, conclusion. b) Testing Officer B’s claim State the hypotheses, find critical value and state the decision rule, compute the test value, make decision,…
Researchers at Purdue University and Wichita State University found that airlines aredoing a better job of getting passengers to their destinations on time (Associated Press,April 2, 2012). AirTran Airways and Southwest Airlines were among the leaders in ontime arrivals with both having 88% of their flights arriving on time. But for the 12% offlights that were delayed, how many minutes were these flights late? Sample data showing the number of minutes that delayed flights were late are provided in the file namedAirDelay. Data are shown for both airlines.a. Formulate the hypotheses that can be used to test for a difference between the populationmean minutes late for delayed flights by these two airlines.b. What is the sample mean number of minutes late for delayed flights for each of thesetwo airlines?c. Using a .05 level of significance, what is the p-value and what is your conclusion?
