ratings contributes significantly in the prediction of market volatility. as per the regression model above , the 95% confidence interval does not include 0 which explains that the relationship between volatility and cratings is significant. R sq which is the measure of goodness of a model implies that model is reliable as value of r-sq is closer than 1. [10] iv. Compute the proportion of developed countries (D) in the sample. Proportion of

“Pizzazz.” Thirty (n=30) random selected Pizzazzes are driven for a month and the mileage is carefully measured in each. The mean mileage for the sample is 28.6 miles per gallon (mpg) and the sample standard deviation is 2.2 mpg. Estimate a 95% confidence interval for the mean mpg in the entire population of Pizzazzes (you might need to round your answer a little bit to agree with mine). (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) (23.42, 33.84) (27.81, 29.39) (26.82, 30.47) (27.23, 30.03) None of the above

condition and without the restriction to comparison of means. The most important new idea is that bootstrap resampling must mimic the separate samples design that produced the original data. Bootstrap in mean, bootstrap in median, and bootstrap in confidence interval are three kinds of effective way to handle mass spectrometric data. Then,we need to reduce dimension based on bootstrap method. It may allow the data to be more easily visualized. Afterwards, using results obtained by bootstrap, we use data mining
