Question 7

number of murders per 100,000 residents for several Northwestern states.

11.6 8.1 7.1 3.7 2.7 2.2 2.4 0.5
13.7 10.6 10.3 7.5 6 5.9 6.4 4.7

Use your calculator to do a linear regression expressing the number of murders per 100,000 residents as a function of the number of thousands of state-registered automatic weapons. Also, give the and 2 values from your calculator Regression Equation: = 2 = Round to 3 decimal places. Using your linear regression, how many murders per 100,000 residents can be expected in a state with 7000 automatic weapons? Round to 3 decimal places. Using your linear regression, how many automatic weapons would be expected in a city with 9 murders per 100,000 residents?

Question 8

Gotham City is piloting a crime reduction program so that it does not have to rely on the help of super-heroes anymore. The table below shows the number of crimes committed every year (since 2005). The mayor of Gotham needs your help and you are tasked to find the following:

Years () 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014
Crimes () 1370 1342 1336 1324 1326 1314 1330 1310 1302 1311

Use the data to create an appropriate linear function (in equation form) that represents the number of crimes as a function of the calendar year. Also, give the and 2 values from your calculator. Regression Equation: = 2 = Round all values to 3 decimal places. Gotham can stop relying on super-heroes' help once the number of crimes drop below 500 per year. In which year will that happen?

Correlation coefficient:

This indicates:

  • very weak negative linear correlation
  • fairly strong positive linear correlation
  • no linear correlation
  • perfect negative linear correlation
  • very weak positive linear correlation
  • perfect positive linear correlation
  • fairly strong negative linear correlation

an Select an answer increase decrease of $

(NOTE: be careful of UNITS!)

Question 10

15 62
15 66
15 63

Having found a relationship between the number of ribbits per hour and temperature, statisticians then found a regression model, ^=32.37+2.246, for the data with explanatory variable = ribbits per hour and response variable = temperature (F).

b. Use the given regression line equation to predict the temperature (round to 1 decimal place) if the rate of frog ribbits/hour is 1) 14 ribbits/hour, predicted temp = F 2) 28 ribbits/hour, predicted temp = F
