Using a sample of 60 undergraduates, Dr. Hotchkins discovers a negative correlation between stress and emotional well-being. Whi

le looking at a scatterplot of the data, Dr. Hotchkins realizes there are 4 outliers in the data, all for individuals with extremely high scores on stress and extremely high scores on well-being. What is the effect of these outliers on the correlation

Answer and explanation:

A negative correlation means a relationship between two variables whereby each variable affects the other such that an increase in one variable means a decrease in the other and vice versa. This is the situation with the correlation graph/scatter plot of Dr. Hotchkins: An increase in stress would cause a decrease in emotional well being and vice versa

An Outlier is a data point on the scatter plot that does not fall into the pattern of the correlation graph. From the above, 4 points are outliers: extremely high points on stress and emotional well being. These points would affect (increase or decrease) the correlation coefficient depending on where they fall in the pattern. In this case there are 4 outliers out of 60 data points and we know that the more outliers there are the more effect they have on the correlation coefficient and vice versa(also depending on where the outlier is on the scatter plot)

<h3>Answer:  11.2 inches</h3>

Work Shown:

(real height)/(scale height) = (real length)/(scale length)

(10 feet)/(8 inches) = (14 feet)/(x inches)

10/8 = 14/x

10x = 8*14

10x = 112

x = 112/10

x = 11.2 inches

Two boys and three girls are auditioning to play the piano for a school production. Two students will be chosen, one as the pian
Sergio039 [100]
The answer is 0.24

To calculate this, a multiplication rule is used. The multiplication rule calculates the probability that both of two events will occur. In this method, the probabilities of each event are multiplied. Here we have two events:

1. The probability that the pianist will be a boy,

2. The probability that the alternate will be a girl.


So, let's calculate these probabilities:

There are in total 5 children:

2 boys + 3 girls = 5 children.

1. The probability that the pianist will be a boy is 2 boys out of 5 children, which is 2/5.

2. The probability that the alternate will be a girl is 3 girls out of 5 children, which is 3/5.


<span>The probability that the pianist will be a boy and the alternate will be a girl is:</span>

<span>2/5 </span><span>× 3/5 = 6/25</span>

<span>6/25 </span><span>× 4/4 = 24/100 = 0.24</span>
