1 Exam Name MULTIPLE CHOICE. Choose the one alternative that best completes the statement or answers the question. Solve the problem. 1) A science instructor assigns a group of students to investigate the relationship between the ph of the water of a river and its waterʹs hardness (measured in grains). Some students wrote these conclusions: ʺthere was a very strong correlation of 1.45 between ph of the water and waterʹs hardness.ʺ Is the calculation of the correlation appropriate? A) No: correlation must be equal to 1. B) No: correlation cannot be greater than 1. C) Yes: the ph and the hardness of the water are data collected from the same river. D) Yes: correlation can be greater than 1. E) No: there is little or no association. 1) 2) A science instructor assigns a group of students to investigate the linear relationship between the ph of the water of a river and its waterʹs hardness (measured in grains). Some students wrote these conclusions: ʺMy correlation of shows that there is almost no association between ph of the water and waterʹs hardness.ʺ Is the interpretation of the correlation appropriate? A) Yes: ph and hardness of water do not have the same units. B) No: correlation is always positive. C) No: a correlation of shows a strong relation in a negative direction. D) Yes: a correlation of shows a weak relation in a negative direction. E) No: the ph and the hardness of the water are data collected from the same river. 2) 3) A survey was conducted in 20 counties to determine the percentage of teenagers who had used marijuana and other drugs. Data shown on the following scatterplot indicate a correlation of between the percent of teens who have used marijuana and the percent who have used other drugs. Describe the association. 3) A) Strong linear relation in a positive direction B) Weak linear relation in a positive direction C) Strong nonlinear relation in a positive direction D) No evidence of relation E) Strong curved relation in a positive direction 1
2 4) Adam would like to buy a used car, and collected several data to evaluate the best model (such as age, price, weight, etc.) Thanks to a scatterplot, he established that the relation between age and weight is somewhat linear. He calculated that the correlation between age and weight is Describe the association. A) Weak linear relation in a positive direction B) Strong linear relation in a positive direction C) Weak linear relation in a negative direction D) No evidence of relation E) Weak linear relation 4) Answer the question appropriately. 5) A random sample of records of electricity usage of homes gives the amount of electricity used in July and size (in square feet) of 135 homes. A regression was done to predict the amount of electricity used (in kilowatt-hours) from size. The residuals plot indicated that a linear model is ^ appropriate. The model is usage = size. Explain what the slope of the line says about the electricity usage and home size. A) On average, the amount of electricity used increases by 1266 kilowatt-hours when the size of the house is increased by a square foot. B) On average, the amount of electricity used is 0.7 kilowatt hours less than the size of the house. C) On average, the amount of electricity used increases by 0.7 kilowatt-hours when the size of the house is increased by a square foot. D) On average, the size of the house increases by 0.7 feet for every kilowatt-hour used. E) On average, the size of the house increases by 1266 feet for every kilowatt-hour used. 6) A random sample of records of electricity usage of homes gives the amount of electricity used and size (in square feet) of 135 homes. A regression to predict the amount of electricity used (in kilowatt-hours) from size has an R-squared of 71.0%. The residuals plot indicated that a linear model is appropriate. Write a sentence summarizing what R2 says about this regression. A) Size differences explain 71.0% of the variation in electricity usage. B) Size differences explain 29% of the variation in electricity usage. C) Differences in electricity usage explain 71.0% of the variation in the size of house. D) Differences in electricity usage explain 29% of the variation in the number of house. E) Size differences explain 71.0% of the variation in the number of homes. 5) 6) Use the model to make the appropriate prediction. 7) A random sample of records of electricity usage of homes in the month of July gives the amount of electricity used and size (in square feet) of 135 homes. A regression was done to predict the amount of electricity used (in kilowatt-hours) from size. The residuals plot indicated that a linear ^ model is appropriate. The model is usage = size. How much electricity would you predict would be used in a house that is 2471 square feet? A) kilowatt-hours B) kilowatt-hours C) kilowatt-hours D) kilowatt-hours E) kilowatt-hours 7) 2
3 8) The relationship between the number of games won by a minor league baseball team and the average attendance at their home games is analyzed.

A) people B) 7724 people C) 9724 people D) 11,724 people E) 11 people 8) SHORT ANSWER. Write the word or phrase that best completes each statement or answers the question. Identify the flaw(s) in the experiment or study described. 9) At St. Lukeʹs hospital in 1998, 674 women were diagnosed with breast cancer. Five years later, 88% of the Caucasian women and 83% of the African American women were still alive. A researcher concludes that being Caucasian causes women with breast cancer an increased chance of surviving five years. Why is this conclusion not jusitified? 9) 10) Researchers reported that going to the gym regularly increases your chance of finding a high paying job.
