A sample of 716 adolescent girls from a particular health authority participated in a study of the relationship between systolic
blood pressure (SBP) and resting heart rate (RHR). Measurements of SBP (in mm Hg) and RHR (in beats/min.) were taken on each girl. You may assume that the SBP measurements are independent and normally distributed with common SD. The data are available here: "RHR" "SBP"

1) Write down the linear regression model for these data. Be sure to define your variables and to state all assumptions.
2) Conduct the test of whether mean SBP is positively associated with RHR. In particular: Specify the null and alternative hypotheses, the value of the test statistic, the p-value and using a significance level of = 0.05, state your conclusions in the language of the problem.
3) Provide a 90% confidence interval for the mean SBP of girls with a RHR of 100 beats/min AND a 90% prediction interval for the SBP of a girl with a RHR of 100 beats/min.
4) Given an intuitive (not mathematical) explanation as to why your interval in (f) is so much wider than your interval in (e).
What is the ratio of boys to girls in simplest form?
The ratio of boys : girls →4:5 so you have 4 boys and 5 girls making the whole count 4+5=9 in its simplest form. So to change the ratio proportion into fraction proportion we have: boys →49 of the whole
Let's start with the area of the square now let's subtract the are of the two half circles. two half circles are the same as one circle, and we know that the diameter of the circle is 8 (same as the side of a square) so it's radius is 8/2= 4 inches
