Decide which variable should be the independent variable and which should be the dependent variable.
Draw a scatter plot of the ordered pairs.
Calculate the least squares line. Put the equation in the form of:
Find the correlation coefficient. Is it significant?
Find the estimated maximum values for the restaurants on page 10 and on page 70.
Use the two points in (e) to plot the least squares line on your graph from (b).
Does it appear that the restaurants giving the maximum value are placed in the beginning of the “Fine Dining” section? How did you arrive at your answer?
Suppose that there were 200 pages of restaurants. What do you estimate to be the maximum value for a restaurant listed on page 200?
Is the least squares line valid for page 200? Why or why not?
What is the slope of the least squares (best-fit) line? Interpret the slope.
The next two questions refer to the following data: The cost of a leading liquid laundry detergent in different sizes is given below.

Using “size” as the independent variable and “cost” as the dependent variable, make a scatter plot.
Does it appear from inspection that there is a relationship between the variables? Why or why not?
Calculate the least squares line. Put the equation in the form of:
Find the correlation coefficient. Is it significant?
If the laundry detergent were sold in a 40 ounce size, find the estimated cost.
If the laundry detergent were sold in a 90 ounce size, find the estimated cost.
Use the two points in (e) and (f) to plot the least squares line on your graph from (a).
Does it appear that a line is the best way to fit the data? Why or why not?
Are there any outliers in the above data?
Is the least squares line valid for predicting what a 300 ounce size of the laundry detergent would cost? Why or why not?
What is the slope of the least squares (best-fit) line? Interpret the slope.

slope = 0.0371. As the number of ounces increases by one, the cost of liquid detergent tends to increase by $0.0371 or is predicted to increase by $0.0371 (about 4 cents).
Complete the above table for the cost per ounce of the different sizes.
Using “Size” as the independent variable and “Cost per ounce” as the dependent variable, make a scatter plot of the data.
Does it appear from inspection that there is a relationship between the variables? Why or why not?
Calculate the least squares line. Put the equation in the form of:
Find the correlation coefficient. Is it significant?
If the laundry detergent were sold in a 40 ounce size, find the estimated cost per ounce.
If the laundry detergent were sold in a 90 ounce size, find the estimated cost per ounce.
Use the two points in (f) and (g) to plot the least squares line on your graph from (b).
Does it appear that a line is the best way to fit the data? Why or why not?
Are there any outliers in the above data?
Is the least squares line valid for predicting what a 300 ounce size of the laundry detergent would cost per ounce? Why or why not?
What is the slope of the least squares (best-fit) line? Interpret the slope.

Every time someone flushes a toilet in the apartment building, the person begins to jumb back automatically after hearing the flush, before the water temperature changes. Identify the types of learning, if it is classical conditioning identify the NS, UCS, CS and CR. If it is operant conditioning, identify the type of consequence positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement or punishment
nature is an hereditary factor while nurture is an environmental factor which constitute an individual personality. so if an individual's parent has a deviant behavior and was also brought up in an deviant environment, observation of the behavior and the inborn trait we make the individual deviant.

I am taking this course because I am hoping that I could somehow learn more about my chosen field of interest and due to the fact that being a PsyD really ignites my passion as an individual the more I hope to learn about developing and literally explore the complexity of my critical thinking skills
