Which is the best estimate of the correlation coefficient for the variables in the scatter plot?

By using a scatter plot we can get the relationship of two variables or correlation.

There will be two types of correlation.

If the data of the plot show a positive slope of the estimated line then it will be a positive correlation.

Now a correlation value lie between 0 to 1 if it is very close to 0 like 0.1 , 0.2 then we can say the correlation is weak psitively correlated. and if it will be close to 1 like 0.8 or 0.9 then the correlation will be strong.

Similarly if slope of the estimated line will be negative then it will be a negative correlation.

From the above scatter plot notice that it has a negative slope and we can draw a fair estimate line on this scatter plot. So, there is strong negative correlation.

Hence the correct choice is -0.8.

According to an​ airline, flights on a certain route are on time 80 ​% of the time. suppose 10 flights are randomly selected and
natulia [17]
<span>(a) This is a binomial experiment since there are only two possible results for each data point: a flight is either on time (p = 80% = 0.8) or late (q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.8 = 0.2).
​(b) Using the formula:</span><span>
P(r out of n) = (nCr)(p^r)(q^(n-r)), where n = 10 flights, r = the number of flights that arrive on time:
P(7/10) = (10C7)(0.8)^7 (0.2)^(10 - 7) = 0.2013
Therefore, there is a 0.2013 chance that exactly 7 of 10 flights will arrive on time.
​(c) Fewer than 7 flights are on time means that we must add up the probabilities for P(0/10) up to P(6/10).
Following the same formula (this can be done using a summation on a calculator, or using Excel, to make things faster):
P(0/10) + P(1/10) + ... + P(6/10) = 0.1209
This means that there is a 0.1209 chance that less than 7 flights will be on time.
​(d) The probability that at least 7 flights are on time is the exact opposite of part (c), where less than 7 flights are on time. So instead of calculating each formula from scratch, we can simply subtract the answer in part (c) from 1.
1 - 0.1209 = 0.8791.
So there is a 0.8791 chance that at least 7 flights arrive on time.
(e) For this, we must add up P(5/10) + P(6/10) + P(7/10), which gives us
0.0264 + 0.0881 + 0.2013 = 0.3158, so the probability that between 5 to 7 flights arrive on time is 0.3158.

miskamm [114]

Answer:

The conditions for use of the normal model to represent the distribution of sample proportion are not met. He should increase the sample size until the conditions are met.

If the test is done anyway, the null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

The conclusion is taht there is not enough evidence to support the claim that the percentage is lower in this district.

Step-by-step explanation:

The conditions for use of the normal model to represent the distribution of sample proportion are not met, as the affirmative responses are less than 10.

np=80*0.1=8

If the test of hypothesis is done as if the conditiones were met, we know that the claim is that  the percentage is lower in this district.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

H_0: \pi=0.173\\\\H_a:\pi

The significance level is 0.05.

The sample has a size n=80.

The sample proportion is p=0.1.

 

The standard error of the proportion is:

\sigma_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.173*0.827}{80}}\\\\\\ \sigma_p=\sqrt{0.001788}=0.042

Then, we can calculate the z-statistic as:

z=\dfrac{p-\pi+0.5/n}{\sigma_p}=\dfrac{0.1-0.173+0.5/80}{0.042}=\dfrac{-0.067}{0.042}=-1.578

This test is a left-tailed test, so the P-value for this test is calculated as:

P-value=P(z

As the P-value (0.057) is greater than the significance level (0.05), the effect is  not significant.

The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

There is not enough evidence to support the claim that  the percentage is lower in this district.

There are 2121 students in a school. A PE teacher wants to arrange maximum possible number of students in the field such that th
kifflom [539]

Answer:

5 students are left out in the arrangement.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the number of rows = the number of columns  

Then there must be an equal arrangement

Since the total number of students in the school is 2121

Then, the students that are left out in this arrangement = 2121 - (√2121 X √2121

Note the result of the square root would only consider the whole number, the digits after the decimal point signifies the remaining number that can't fit into the arrangement

so, √2121 = 46.05 (so 46 would be used)

= 2121 - (46 X 46)

= 2121 - 2116 = 5

Therefore 5 students are left out in the arrangement.

Help me please <br> PLEASEEE
vodka [1.7K]
So you can do 1/2 and then divide it by 1/8.

To divide by a fraction, multiply by its reciprocal.
So;
1/2 / 1/8 = 1/2•8/1

1/2• 8 = 8/2
8/2= 4

So he can fill 4 mugs!!!
