Submit
3) Which App should I run in order to populate the pages relating to Transformations?

Explanation

The correct answer is "bivartransfrmtn" because it is the specific app that needs to be run in order to populate the pages relating to transformations. This app likely contains the necessary tools and functions for performing bivariate transformations, which are a type of transformation involving two variables.

Submit
4) It is always good practice to check the values you have entered. On which page could I expect to check the values of the data in a table format?

Explanation

The values of the data in a table format can be checked on page 1.3. This page likely contains a table where the values are displayed and can be reviewed. It is important to always verify the entered values to ensure accuracy and avoid any potential errors.

Submit
5) I need to look at the scatter plot of the bivariate data to determine which quadrant it might fit into. Which page would I go to?

Explanation

To determine which quadrant the bivariate data might fit into, one would need to refer to the scatter plot. The scatter plot is a graphical representation of the data points on a coordinate plane. By examining the placement of the points on the scatter plot, one can determine in which quadrant the data falls. Therefore, to find the scatter plot and determine the quadrant, the person would go to page 1.4.

Submit
6) I want a full list of details relating to the Linear Regression equation, form and strength, correlation coefficient and coefficient of deterimation. Which page will offer me a summary of these details?

Explanation

The full list of details relating to the Linear Regression equation, form and strength, correlation coefficient, and coefficient of determination can be found on page 1.6. This page offers a summary of these details.

Submit
7) The only way to truly tell if a set of data is linear is to look at its residual plot. Which page would I find the residual plot for the least squares regression line?

Explanation

The residual plot for the least squares regression line can be found on page 1.9. By examining the residual plot, one can determine if the data follows a linear pattern.

Submit
8) I have just run the transformation App to find the best transformation for the data set. Which page would give the equation for the line for the best transformation?

Explanation

The equation for the line for the best transformation can be found on page 1.8.

Submit
9) While a transformation may be determined to be the 'best' transformation because of its coefficient of determination, thats not enough to prove it will be accurate. You still need to look at the residual plot to see that the data is linear AFTER it has been transformed. Where would I find the residual plot for an x squared transformation?

Explanation

The residual plot for an x squared transformation can be found on page 1.16 of the given source.

Submit
10) While a transformation may be determined to be the 'best' transformation because of its coefficient of determination, thats not enough to prove it will be accurate.

19) I have a table of values in an exercise from the book. It is asking me to populate the table with log, squared and reciprocal values. Which App will help me to find all the values in one hit?

Explanation

The correct answer is "bivartranstable". This app is likely to help in populating the table with log, squared, and reciprocal values in one go. It probably provides a function or feature that allows for easy calculation and transformation of values, making it convenient to fill the table with the desired values efficiently.

Submit
20) If x is 70, what is log(x)? (2 decimal places)

Explanation

The value of log(x) is the exponent to which the base (in this case, 10) must be raised to obtain the value x. In this case, if x is 70, then log(70) is approximately 1.85.

Submit
21) If x is 22, what is the reciprocal of x? (3 decimal places)

Explanation

The reciprocal of a number is obtained by taking the reciprocal of the number itself. In this case, the reciprocal of 22 is 1/22, which is equal to 0.045 when rounded to three decimal places.

Submit
22) If x is 15, what is the square of x?

Explanation

The square of a number is obtained by multiplying the number by itself. In this case, x is given as 15. So, the square of 15 is calculated by multiplying 15 by itself, which equals 225.

Submit
23) If y is 10, what is the reciprocal of y? (1 decimal place)

Explanation

The reciprocal of a number is obtained by dividing 1 by that number. In this case, the number y is given as 10. So, the reciprocal of 10 would be 1/10, which can be written as 0.1.

Submit
24) If y is 30, what is the log of y? (2 decimal places)

Explanation

The log of a number is the exponent to which a base must be raised to obtain that number. In this case, if y is 30, the log of y would be the exponent to which a base must be raised to obtain 30. Therefore, the log of 30 is 1.48 (rounded to 2 decimal places).

Submit
25) If y is 22, what is y squared?

Explanation

When y is 22, y squared is calculated by multiplying 22 by itself. So, 22 squared is equal to 484.

Submit
26) Using the Data Set 135 :The residual plot for the x squared transformation indicates that :

Explanation

Page 1.16 - zoom the data and see that it has a pattern. That makes the transformation non linear.

Submit
27) Using the Data Set 135 : The residual plot for the 1/x transformation indicates that :

Explanation

Page 1.22 and see the residual is random, meaning the transformation is linear, and suitable for predictions within the data set.

Submit
28) Using the Dataset 135:The residual plot for the log(y) transformation indicates that :

Explanation

Page 1.28 has the residual plot for the log y transformations - showing a pattern. This means the transformation did not linearise the data.

Submit
29) Using the Dataset 135:The residual plot for the y squared transformation indicates that :

Explanation

Page 1.25 shows the residual plot for the y squared transformation - and it has a pattern. This means the transformation hasn't linearized.

Submit
30) Using the Dataset 135:The residual plot for the linear regression indicates that :

Explanation

Page 1.9 shows the residual plot for the linear regression. Because it is a bowl, we know it can only be in quadrant 3 or 4. Looking at page 1.4, you can see it is in quadrant 3, and the equation for the line tells us that the slope is negative - that's quadrant 3 as well.

Submit
31) I see a residual plot for a linear regression line. It is shaped like a hill. This means

Explanation

The residual plot shaped like a hill suggests that the relationship between the variables is not linear. However, it is possible that a transformation of the data could make the relationship linear. Additionally, the fact that the linear regression is in quadrant 1 or 2 indicates that the relationship is positive.

Submit
32) The residual plot for a transformation is random. This tells me :

Explanation

The statement "The transformation will be suitable to predict interpolated values" is correct because a random residual plot indicates that the transformed data is well-behaved and can be used to predict values within the range of the data. The statement "The transformation has linearized the data" is also correct because a random residual plot suggests that the transformation has reduced any non-linear patterns in the data, making it more linear.

Submit
33) The residual plot for a transformation is a bowl shape. This tells me :

Explanation

The residual plot for a transformation that has a bowl shape indicates that the transformation will be unsuitable to predict interpolated values. This is because a bowl-shaped residual plot suggests that the relationship between the predictor and response variables is not linear, and therefore, using this transformation to predict values within the range of the data may not be accurate or reliable.

Submit
34) I am looking at a residual plot for transformation. It is shaped like a hill. This tells me :

Explanation

The residual plot shaped like a hill indicates that the transformation did not linearize the data. This means that the relationship between the variables is not linear and cannot be adequately represented by a straight line. The other statements, such as the transformation being linear or in quadrant 1 or 2, or the original data being linear, cannot be inferred from the given information about the residual plot.

Submit
