Answer:

\bar X = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i f_i}{N}= \frac{5267.7}{116.6}= 45.178

And the sample variance can be calculated with this formula:

s^2 = \frac{\sum fx^2 -\frac{(\sum x*f)^2}{n}}{n-1}= \frac{250323.15 - \frac{(5267.7)^2}{116.6}}{116.6-1} = 106.7601

And the deviation would be:

s = \sqrt{106.7601}= 10.332

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we can calculate the mean with the following table

Age        Number (f)    Midpoint    x*f                 x^2 *f

25-34         22.1            29.5         651.95         19232.525

35-44         31.5            39.5         1244.25       49147.875

45-54         37.7           49.5         1866.15         92374.425

55-64         25.3           59.5        1505.35        89568.325

Total          116.6                             5267.7        250323.15

And the mean can be calculatd with this formula:

\bar X = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i f_i}{N}= \frac{5267.7}{116.6}= 45.178

And the sample variance can be calculated with this formula:

s^2 = \frac{\sum fx^2 -\frac{(\sum x*f)^2}{n}}{n-1}= \frac{250323.15 - \frac{(5267.7)^2}{116.6}}{116.6-1} = 106.7601

And the deviation would be:

s = \sqrt{106.7601}= 10.332

Which statement is true about a trend line? A regression line and a trend line are opposite terms. A regression line and trend l
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

A is incorrect!  <u>B. should be the correct answer</u>

Step-by-step explanation

After some research, i found that the correct answer is most likely <u><em>B.  a regression line and trend line are equivalent terms</em></u>

<em />

<em>A trendline and a regression can be the same. </em>

<em> A regression line is based upon the best fitting curve Y= a + bX Most often it’s a least-squares fit (where the squared distances from the points to the line (along the Y-axis) is minimized). </em>

<em> It can be quadratic or logistic or otherwise, but most often it is linear. </em>

<em> A trendline is often constructed by smoothing of the results, making it less peaked. (often by using a moving average); but can also come from ARIMA projections or curve fitting techniques (such as regression).</em>

<em />

Let me know if i helped you!

A brochure from the department of public safety in a northern state recommends that motorists should carry 12 items (flashlights
scoray [572]

Answer:

Mean = 6.07

Median = 7

Mode = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Data: 5\ 3\ 7\ 8\ 0\ 1\ 0\ 5\ 12\ 10\ 7\ 6\ 7\ 11\ 9

n = 15

Solving (a): The mean

Mean is calculated as:

Mean = \frac{\sum x}{n}

This gives:

Mean = \frac{5+ 3+ 7+ 8+ 0+ 1+ 0+ 5+ 12+ 10+ 7+ 6+ 7+ 11+ 9}{15}

Mean = \frac{91}{15}

Mean = 6.07

Solving (b): The median

Sort the data in ascending order:

Data: 5\ 3\ 7\ 8\ 0\ 1\ 0\ 5\ 12\ 10\ 7\ 6\ 7\ 11\ 9

Sorted: 0\ 0\ 1\ 3\ 5\ 5\  6\ 7\ 7\ 7\ 8\ 9\ 10\ 11\ 12

The median is:

Median = \frac{n + 1}{2}th

Median = \frac{15 + 1}{2}th

Median = \frac{16}{2}th

Median = 8th    

The 8th item on the sorted dataset is 7; So:

Median = 7

Solving (c): The mode

Mode = 7

Because it has a frequency of 3 (more than any other element of the dataset).

Lyte wishes to study speed of Reaction Time to press a button in response to the onset of a lamp. The independent variable (V) i
Vaselesa [24]

Complete question:

Dr. Lyte wishes to study speed of Reaction Time to press a button in response to the onset of a lamp. The independent variable (V) is the color of the light produced by the lamp (red, orange, yellow, green, or blue) Since only 10 participants are available, she elects to administer the IV within-subjects with all 10 participants being exposed to all five levels of the color variable. The order of the color of the light presentation is to be counterbalanced. Using concepts from the textbook, why would Dr. Lyte need to use counterbalancing in this scenario?

Answer:

Here,

Independent variable (IV) is: the color of the light produced by the lamp (red, orange, yellow, green, or blue)

We are also told only 10 participants are available.

All 10 participants are being exposed to all five levels of the color variable in the same order.

Counterbalancing is said to be a technique used when establishing task order. It helps prevent introduction if cofounding variables.

Dr. Lyte will need to use counterbalancing technique in this scenario because some of the participants may be unable to understand difference in similar colours. Example some participants may not be able to differentiate between orange and red when the red colour comes after orange.

But using counterbalancing technique, Dr. Lyte can avoid such an error.
