Heights​ (cm) and weights​ (kg) are measured for 100 randomly selected adult​ males, and range from heights of 133 to 193 cm and
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

The weight of an adult male who is 172 cm tall is 89.36 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

The regression equation representing the relationship between height and weight of a person is:

\hat y=-105+1.13x

Here

<em>y</em> = weight of a person

<em>x</em> = height of a person

The information provided is:

\bar x=167.90\ cm\\\bar y=81.47\ kg\\r (X, Y) = 0.228\\p-value=0.023\\\alpha =0.05

The hypothesis to test the significance of the correlation between height and weight is:

<em>H₀</em>: There is no relationship between the height and weight, i.e. <em>ρ</em> = 0.

<em>Hₐ</em>: There is a relationship between the height and weight, i.e. <em>ρ </em>≠ 0.

Decision rule:

If the <em>p</em>-value of the test is less than the significance level, then the null hypothesis will be rejected and vice-versa.

According to information provided:

<em>p</em>-value = 0.023 < <em>α</em> = 0.05

The null hypothesis was rejected at 5% level of significance.

Thus, concluding that there is a relationship between the height and weight.

Compute the weight of an adult male with height, <em>x</em> = 172 cm as follows:

\hat y=-105+1.13x

  =-105+(1.13\times 172)\\=-105+194.36\\=89.36

Thus, the weight of an adult male who is 172 cm tall is 89.36 kg.

We have 50 video gamers who share information about their favorite games. 20 people say that Borderlands II is their favorite ga
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

2 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of people (n) = 50

Borderlands II (B) = 20

Fortnite (F) = 33

Minecraft (M) = 19

Borderlands and Fortnite (B&F) = 15

Borderlands and Minecraft (B&M)= 10

All games (B&M&F) = 5

The number of people that claimed more than one game as their favorite (X) is given by:

X=M+B+F-n\\X=19+20+33-50\\X=22\ people

Those people can be divided in B&F only, B&M only, M&F only and B&M&F:

X=(B\&M-B\&M\&F)+(B\&F-B\&M\&F)+(M\&F-B\&M\&F)+B\&M\&F\\X=B\&M+B\&F+M\&F-2*B\&M\&F\\22=10+15+M\&F-2*5\\M\&F=7\ people

7 people claimed that Minecraft and Fortnite were their favorites however, 5 of those people claimed all of the games as their favorite. Therefore, only 2 people declared Minecraft and Fortnite (exclusively) as their favorites.
