Question
Umbrella Corporation requires that its production employees to pass safety training courses before they are allowed to work with dangerous chemicals. This year, Umbrella decided to offer free test preparation services to five of its employees who took the test. After taking the exam, the employee was asked to fill out a survey asking, among other things, how many total hours he or she spent studying for the test. The employee’s score (out of 100) was then recorded, producing the following data set:
|

Y |

40 |
|
3 |
70 |
|
5 |
96 |
|
8 |
64 |
|
9 |
45 |
a). Calculate the correlation, r, between Study_Hours (x) and Score (y).
b). Interpret the number you calculated in (a) in the context of studying and scoring highly on a test.
c). Plot the data neatly in a scatter plot. Be sure to label both axes and make the plot readable. If you have trouble getting the plot to copy from Excel or R, copy the plot first into Microsoft Paint (or the Mac equivalent). Then, copy and paste from Paint to Blackboard.
d). Explain why the plot in (c) does not agree with the number in (a).
e). Human Resources, which pays for and oversees the test preparation program, wishes to
know the relationship between study hours and test score. What should you tell them, based
on the analysis in a-c?

1. Earlier I used to find excuses for not doing my operations management homework, when Veronica, my friend told me about HwA and then everything fell into place. Starting from the inventory management assignments to the critical path measure problem solutions, their operations management tutors helped me get a straight A in all the homework.
Timothy Chapman Student
I always found that circuit design assignments are very mind boggling and for that reason I often got low scores in the past. However, one senior of mine suggested that I take help from HwA as he got much benefit from them. I was a bit sceptical to be honest, at the beginning but eventually when I trusted them with one assignment, the feedback was brilliant. My grades spiked up and since then I take their help on a regular basis.
Noah Smith Student
As a foreign student new to the methods of teaching in the States I desperately needed some personal tutoring with the topics of Stats for my graduate level program. HwA broke my misconception about online services being good only for school students and undergrads by providing me with excellent online stats tutoring for my Masters level requirements.

The tutors at TheReliableTutor.com are experts at taxation laws of multiple countries which makes their research work of very high quality. I am very impressed with the quality of taxation assignment tutoring I received for my assignment help request on capital transfer tax. The tutor assigned to me was aware of all the latest judicial amendments and litigation which made the assignment content that much better. I got a B and now have taken a package for the entire semester.

Biochemistry was difficult to me right from the day I started to attend classes. I had problems in understanding the concepts. Then I found TheReliableTutor.com and my perspective towards the subject has completely changed. Learning became more interesting than before. Thanks to thereliabletutor.com

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
