Which of the following pairs of variables would be expected to have a negative association?

Number of miles driven and amount of gas remaining in gas tank

Number of chores and weekly allowance

Number of hours spent studying and test grade

What's the appropriate interpretation of the slope of the regression line?

For every additional hour of growth, the logarithm of the culture's weight in grams is predicted to increase by 0.61.

For every additional 0.61 hours of growth, the culture is predicted to weight 1 more gram.

For every additional hour of growth, the culture is predicted to weigh 0.61 more grams.

At the beginning of the experiment, the logarithm of the culture's weight in grams was approximately 0.61 ounces.

Which is the best CONTEXTUAL description of the y - intercept for the linear regression equation of the rats: Weight = 100 + 40(Time)?

The y-intercept is 100, which means the rat is predicted to weigh 100 grams at birth.

The y-intercept is 100, which is where the graph crosses the y-axis.

100 is where the data starts on the y-axis.

The y-intercept is 100, which means at a weight of 0, the rat will take 100 seconds.

The correlation coefficient measures...

the strength of the linear relationship between two quantitative variables.

whether there is a relationship between two variables.

the strength of the relationship between two quantitative variables.

whether a cause and effect relation exists between two variables.

The correlation between study time (in hours) and quiz grade (in %) is r = 0.83 This tells us that...

Students who study more get better grades.

Students who study more get worse grades.

Students who study less get better grades.

83% of students who studied passed.

There is positive correlation between ice cream sales (x) and the number of people with sunburns (y). Does this mean if we sell more ice cream, we can increase the number of sunburns people get?

No, the positive correlation just shows that people are more likely to eat ice cream and get sunburns during the summer.

Yes, the correlation says as ice cream sales go up, the number of sunburns go up.

Yes, the positive correlation says if we sell more ice cream we can expect an increase in the number of sunburns.

No: if the correlation were negative we could accept that conclusion, but this correlation is positive.

A restaurant sells pizza for the prices in the data table. Calculate the linear regression equation of the data.

y = 1.5x + 12

y = 12x + 1.5

y = 0.67x - 8

y = -8x + 0.67

A person travels by car. They record their miles driven in a data table. Calculate the linear regression equation of this data.

y = 61.93x - 1.79

y = -1.79x + 61.93

y = 0.016x + 0.03

y = 0.03x + 0.016
