ratings. Many business schools surveys including this one report mean base salaries and median base salaries. These two statistics tend to be similar. KStat can help us find a relationship between the two for this dataset. (a) Use KStat to construct a scatterplot with mean base salary on the vertical axis and median base salary on the horizontal axis. (b) Does the relationship appear linear? (c) Use KStat to perform a regression of mean base salary vs. median base salary. Write out the estimated regression

Do You Care? : Gender and High School Background Effects on Self-Monitoring in the Classroom Floyd Wilks Jr. Lab 4 Specific Aims In today’s society education has become a vital instrument to achieve success. Over the past couple of decades we saw a huge change in the way children would be educated as certain laws were passed to help grantee better education possibilities to those who were less fortunate. Unfortunate‚ we still have great disparity

more room for accuracy than making an inference off of only one value. When we worked with probabilities based on sample means‚ we learned that there is only one population with many possible samples. With Confidence Intervals‚ we calculate a range of values based on one sample drawn in order to draw inferences about the population parameter (in this case‚ the population mean). Confidence Intervals are made up of two parts‚ the point estimate and the margin of error‚ and they are constructed as:

these ten people would you expect to catch a cold? What is the standard deviation of the number of people who catch a cold? (round to the nearest hundredth) QUESTION 23 The number of nails in a five-pound box is normally distributed with a mean of 566 and a standard deviation of 33. What is the probability that there are less than 500 nails in a randomly-selected five-pound box of nails? (express as a decimal‚ not a percentage) The probability is 0.99 that a randomly-selected five-pound

The mean weight of trucks traveling on a particular section of I-475 is not known. A state highway inspector needs an estimate of the mean. He selects a random sample of 49 trucks passing the weighing station and finds the mean is 15.8 tons. The population standard deviation is 3.8 tons. What is the 95 percent interval
