All the tools & learning materials you need for study success - in one app.
Get started for freeIn Exercise 4.10, we give linear equations. For each equation,
a. find the -intercept and slope.
b. determine whether the line slopes upward, slopes downward, or is horizontal, without graphing the equation.
c. use two points to graph the equation.
To determine whether r is positive, negative, or zero.
Theintercept of a line has no effect on the steepness of the line.
The data for shell thickness and concentration of PCBs for Anacapa pelican eggs from Exerciseare on the Weiss Stats site.
(a) Decide whether finding a regression line for the data is reasonable. If so, then also do puts .
Birdies and Score. The data from Exercise 4.70 for number of birdies during a tournament and final score for women golfers are on the WeissStats site.
a. decide whether use of the linear correlation coefficient as a descriptive measure for the data is appropriate, If so, then also do parts (b) and (c).
b. obtain the linear correlation coefficient.
c. interpret the value of in terms of the linear relationship between the two variables in question.
