The Cadet is a popular model of sport utility vehicle, known for its relatively high resale value. The bivariate data given below were taken from a sample of sixteen Cadets, each bought "new" two years ago and each sold "used" within the past month. For each Cadet in the sample, we have listed both the mileage, x (in thousands of miles), that the Cadet had on its odometer at the time it was sold used, and the price, y (in thousands of dollars), at which the Cadet was sold used. These data are shown graphically in the scatter plot in Figure 1. Also given are the products of the mileages and used selling prices for each of the sixteen Cadets. (These products, written in the column labelled "xy," may aid in calculations.)
Answer the following. Carry your intermediate computations to at least four decimal places, and round your answer as specified below.
What is the value of the slope of the least-squares regression line for these data? Round your answer to a least two decimal places.

The well-known psychologist Dr. Elbod has established what he calls his Generalized Anxiety Scale (GAS). The GAS, which is a scale from 0 to 10, measures the "general anxiety of an individual, with higher GAS scores corresponding to more anxiety. (Dr. Elbod's assessment of anxiety is based on a variety of measurements, both physiological and psychological.) We're interested in making predictions about individuals' sleep behavior based on their GAS scores. The bivariate data below give the GAS score (denoted by...
Manage.an outdoor coffee stand in Coast City are examing the relationship between (hot) coffee sales and daily temperature, hoping to be able to predict a day's total coffee sales from the maximum temperature that day. The bivariate data values for the coffee sales (denoted by y, in dollars) and the maximum temperature (denoted by x, in degrees Fahrenheit) for each of fifteen randomly selected days during the past year are given below. These data are plotted in the scatter plot...
also given are the products of the stimulus intensities and
Weber fractions for each of the ten stimuli
Weber's law, a concept taught in most Introduction to Psychology courses, states that the ratio of the intensity of a stimulus to the "just noticeable" increment in intensity is constant, that is, the ratio doesn't depend on the intensity of the stimulus. The ratio is called the "Weber fraction," so a concise statement of Weber's law is that "the Weber fraction is...
