how this relationship changes between girls and boys, with age. I have chosen to investigate the relationship between the height and the weight as I think that the height and the weight are the only two categories that will give a clear correlation. If I was to investigate the relationship of two other categories, like the eye colour and the IQ, I believe that however interesting and amusing the results would be, they would not provide too clear a relationship, or any conclusive information

Crude Oil Price | A comprehensive examination of statistical models using Multiple Linear Regression | | STAT 378 | 4/29/2010 Introduction – definition of response, predictor, and indicator variables Our group has decided to explore the problem of rising crude oil prices and attempt to identify variables that contribute to rising/falling costs of oil roughly over the last 25 years. We have selected many different economic measurement tools that might contribute to how oil prices have

indicates the correlation between the two variables; if it is close to 1 then we have a perfect correlation and it is close to zero we have no correlation between the two variables. In this graph we can see that the R2 value is about 0.099 which is close to 0 therefore the correlation between government debt and GDP growth is weak. Although since it is a positive number we can say that we have a weak positive correlation. Budget Balance and GDP Growth Relationship The second scatter graph that I

data to construct several graphs, such as a boxplot, histogram, stem and leaf plot and a scatter plot to determine if or how the data is skewed and if there are any outliers. If we identify any outliers we will determine whether these are errors. Third we will use a t-test, Chi squares and binomial approximation to construct a hypothesis about the data. Fourth, we will construct a linear regression and look for correlation. The analyzed data from these test should give us an idea of whether this plan

1 Read the step-by-step example given on page 157 and explain how to determine whether the correlation involved in this example is weak, moderate or strong. 2 Go through the self-paced lecture for this module. Then explain in your own words the use of the method of least-squares (on slide 39) when finding the regression line. 3 Explain how to use your TI-84+ calculator to compute the linear correlation coefficient and the coefficient of determination in problem 53 on page 206. Explain their relationship
