3. A real estate company wants to study the relationship between Home price (in OMR 1000) and the following variables: Floor size (in 100 square feet (X 1 ) Type of Heating (X 2 =1 , if electricity and x 2 =0 , if Gas) , Location of home (X 3 =1 town and X 3 =0 , if in village). Use this to answer the following questions: Then the standard error of beta 1 (S b1 ) is A. None B. 1.7379 C. 4.0169 D.23.7078 E. 0.5754
Marine biologists have noticed that the color of the outermost growth band on a clam tends to be related to the time of year in which the clam dies. A biologist conducted a small investigation of whether this is true for the species Protothaca staminea. She collected a sample of 50 clam shells in February and 27 clam shells in March. 15 of the shells from February had a dark color on the outermost growth band, whereas 8 of the shells from March had a dark color on the outermost growth band. Carry out a hypothesis test to see if there is a difference in the proportion of shells with a dark outermost growth band between the two months. The point estimate for the true difference in proportion of dark growth bands between February and March is:

Assume that as a portfolio manager the beta of your portfolio is 1.15 and that your performance is exactly on target with the SML data under condition 1. If the true SML data is given by condition 2, how much does your performance differ from the true SML? (1) RFR = 0.0625 Rm(proxy) = 0.12 (2) RK = 0.078 Rm(true) = 0.10

A researcher predicts that scores in treatment A will be higher than scores in treatment B. If the mean for the 10 participants in treatment A is 4 points higher than the mean for the 10 participants in treatment B and the data produced t = 2.095 What decision should be made? Choose one a. With an alpha = .05 reject the null for either a one tail or two tails b. With an alpha = .05 fail to reject the null for either a one tail or two tails c. With an alpha = .05 reject the null for one tail but fail to reject with two tails d. With an alpha = .05 reject the null for two tails but fail to reject for a one tail

1) The following data show the results of a study based on the number of hours college students spend playing video games and their GPAs: Number of Hours Playing Video Games(per week)= 42 GPA= 0.2Number of Hours Playing Video Games(per week)= 38 GPA= 0.9Number of Hours Playing Video Games(per week) = 32 GPA= 1.0Number of Hours Playing Video Games(per week) = 26 GPA = 1.1Number of Hours Playing Video Games(per week) = 23 GPA= 1.2Number of Hours Playing Video Games(per week) = 19 GPA= 2.5Number of Hours Playing Video Games(per week) = 15 GPA = 3.0 a) Create a scatter plot and be sure to LABEL BOTH axis and give the chart an overall name. Have the graph display the “r-value” and the correct equation.b) What kind of correlation is this?c) Is this more of a linear or exponential model? Why?d) Predict the standard GPA if a student spends one hour a week playing videogames.
If X1 and X2 constitute a random sample of size n = 2from an exponential population, find the efficiency of 2Y1relative to X, where Y1 is the first order statistic and 2Y1and X are both unbiased estimators of the parameter
For some genetic mutations, it is thought that the frequency of the mutant gene in men increases linearly with age. If m1 is the frequency at age t1, and m2 is the frequency at age t2, then the yearly rate of increase is estimated by r = (m2 − m1)/(t2 − t1). In a polymerase chain reaction assay, the frequency in 20-year-old men was estimated to be 17.7 ± 1.7 per μgDNA, and the frequency in 40-year-old men was estimated to be 35.9 ± 5.8 per μg DNA. Assume that age is measured with negligible uncertainty.a) Estimate the yearly rate of increase, and find the uncertainty in the estimate.b) Find the relative uncertainty in the estimated rate of increase.
