- An insurance company determines that a linear relationship exists between the cost of fire damage in major residential fıres and the distance from the house to the nearest fire station. A sample of 15 recent fires in a large suburb of a major city was selected. For each fire, the following variables were recorded: x= the distance between the fire and the nearest fire station (in miles) y= cost of damage (in dollars) The distances between the fire and the nearest fire station ranged between 0.7 miles and 6.1 miles. The correlation between cost and distance is 0.961. Test if the correlation is significant at a=.10. O No, the correlation is not significant because 0.961 does not exceed the critical value. O Yes, the correlation is significant because 0.961 exceeds the critical value. No, the correlation is not significant because 0.961 exceeds the critical value.

The clinical trial investigates whether adverse responses increase with larger drug doses. Subjects receive either a placebo or one of four drug doses (1, 2, 3, or 4 units). An adverse response is recorded as Adverse = 'Yes'; otherwise, it is recorded as Adverse = 'No'. The number of subjects for each drug dose and response combination is contained in the variable Count. (a) Construct a contingency table that corresponds to the data set created above. What type of variable is Dose? (B) Compute the sample proportions of adverse responses at each dose level. Do you observe any trend in the proportion of adverse responses with respect to dose level?
