If a sample of 25 pairs of data yields a correlation coefficient, r, of 0.390 and the scatterplot displays a linear trend, can you use the regression equation to make predictions, assuming your x-values are within the domain of the data set? Choose your answer from the multiple choice answers below
A.) Yes, because rcrit = 0.396 and the regression coefficient, r, is less than this value.
B.) Yes, because rcrit = 0.381 and the regression coefficient, r, is greater than this value.
C.) No, because rcrit = 0.381 and the regression coefficient, r, is greater than this value.
D.) No, because rcrit = 0.396 and the regression coefficient, r, is less than this value.

The admissions officer for a certain college developed the following estimated regression equation relating the final college GPA to the student's SAT mathematics score and high school GPA.
ŷ = −1.39 + 0.0234x1 + 0.00482x2
where
x1
=
high-school grade point average
x2
=
SAT mathematics score
y
=
final college grade point average.
#1)A high-school average 84 corresponds to x1 = 84
and a score of 535 on the SAT mathematics test corresponds to
x2 = 535. Substitute these values into the estimated regression equation to find the final college GPA, rounding the result to two decimal places.

A study was done that examined the effectiveness of a 7-Minute Screen test for Alzheimer’s disease. The study evaluated the relationship between scores from the 7-Minute Screen and scores for the same patients from a set of cognitive exams that are typically used to test for Alzheimer’s disease. For a sample of n=9 patients, the scores for the 7-Minute Screen averaged M=7 with SS = 92. The cognitive test scores averaged M=17 with SS = 236. For these data, SP = 127.
