An experiment will be conducted to test the effectiveness of a weight-loss supplement. Volunteers will be randomly assigned to take either the supplement or a placebo for 90 days, with 12 volunteers in each group. The subjects will not know which treatment they receive. At the end of the experiment, researchers plan to calculate the mean weight loss for each of the two groups and to construct a two-sample t-confidence interval for the difference of the two treatment means. Which of the following assumptions is necessary for the confidence interval to be valid?
a. The sample size is greater than or equal to 10 percent of the population size.
b. Each of the two groups has at least 5 successes and at least 5 failures.
c. The distributions of weight loss of the two treatments are approximately normally distributed.
d. The volunteers in the supplement group are paired with volunteers in the placebo group.
e. The expected number of people who lose weight in each group is at least 5.

Aconcession manager at yankee stadium wants to know how temperature affects beer sales. she took a sample of 10 games and recorded the number of beers sold and the temperature in the middle of the game. temperature 80 68 78 79 87 74 86 92 77 84 number of beers 20533 1439 13829 21286 30985 17187 30240 87596 9610 28742 a. draw a scatter plot of the data. b. the manager estimates the regression equation to be: numberofbeers = −100, 678 + 1, 513 ∗ temperature draw this on your scatter plot. c. for one of the estimated points, indicate the residual with ei . d. for that same point, indicate what part of the variation is explained by the model with ˆyi − y¯.
