data is recorded for 300 randomly selected patients at a large hospital. The information noted includes the patient's temperature at the time of admission and the patient's temperature again 24 hours later. This data is used to create ordered pairs (temperature when admitted, temperature 24 hours later). The data show that the average patient temperature upon admission is 102 degrees. Twentyfour hours later the average patient temperature in this data set is 99 degrees. The standard deviation is 1.4 degrees for temperatures when admitted and 0.7 degrees for those taken the next day. The correlation between the two temperatures is 0.75.

If a patient enters with temperature 103, what do you expect his temperature to be 24 hours later?

True or False: Spending 24 hours in the hospital causes patients temperatures to drop, on average, 3 degrees. Justify

Because all of those temperatures are reported in degrees Fahrenheit. If you want to share this question with a German and convert the temperatures to Celsius, what is the new correlation coefficient?
