• –1  r  1
• Value of r does not change if all values of either variable are converted to a different
scale.
• The r is not affected by the choice of x and y. Interchange x and y will not change the
value of r.
• r measures strength of a linear relationship.
Testing for a Linear Correlation:
Calculate the value of r (Formula above), and choose the value of α

Step 4: Decision
If the absolute value of TS does not exceed
the critical values:
a. Do not Reject H0
b. The claim is False
c. There is no linear correlation between
the 2 variables.
If the absolute value of TS exceeds the
critical values:
a. Reject H0
b. The claim is True
c. There is a significant linear
correlation between the 2 variables.
Regression, Regression Equation
The regression equation expresses a relationship between x (called the independent variable,
predictor variable or explanatory variable, and y (called the dependent variable or response
variable.

2. 2
The typical equation of a straight line is expressed in the form of y = mx + b, where b is the y-
intercept and m is the slope. (Given a collection of paired data, the regression equation,
algebraically describes the relationship between the two variables)

Regression Line
The graph of the regression equation is called the regression line (or line of best fit, or least
squares line). Best fit means that the sum of the squares of the vertical distance (residuals)
from each point to the line is at a minimum.
If there is not a significant linear
correlation, the best predicted y-
value value is 𝒚.
If there is a significant linear
correlation, the best predicted y-
value is found by substituting the
x-value into the regression
equation.

Chapter 11: Multinomial Experiments & Contingency Tables
Definition:
A Multinomial Experiment is an experiment that meets the following conditions:
1. The number of trials is fixed.
2. The trials are independent.
3. All outcomes of each trial must be classified into exactly one of several different categories.
4. The probabilities for the different categories remain constant for each trial.
11.1: Goodness-of-fit Test in Multinomial Experiments:
Definition
A goodness-of-fit test is used to test the hypothesis that an observed frequency distribution fits
(or conforms to) some claimed distribution.
0 represents the observed frequency of an outcome
E represents the expected frequency of an outcome
k represents the number of different categories or outcomes
n represents the total number of trials
If all expected frequencies are equal, then
n
E
k
= , the sum of all observed frequencies divided by the number of categories.
If the expected frequencies are not all equal:
E np
= , each expected frequency is found by multiplying the sum of all observed frequencies
by the probability for the category.

11.2: Contingency Tables: Independence and Homogeneity
Contingency Table (or two-way frequency table)
Definition
A contingency table is a table in which frequencies correspond to two variables.
(One variable is used to categorize rows, and a second variable is used to categorize columns.)
Contingency tables have at least two rows and at least two columns.
Test of Independence

5. 5
This method tests the null hypothesis that the row variable and column variable in a contingency
table are not related. (The null hypothesis is the statement that the row and column variables are
independent.)
Assumptions
The sample data are randomly selected.
The null hypothesis H0 is the statement that the row and column variables are independent; the
alternative hypothesis H1 is the statement that the row and column variables are dependent.
For every cell in the contingency table, the expected frequency E is at least 5. (There is no
requirement that every observed frequency must be at least 5.)

Test of Homogeneity
In a test of homogeneity, we test the claim that different populations have the same proportions
of some characteristics.
How to distinguish between a test of homogeneity and a test for independence:
Were predetermined sample sizes used for different populations (are they similar in nature?)
(test of homogeneity,), or was one big sample drawn so both row and column totals were
determined randomly (test of independence)?

Mini Lecture:
Chapter 12: Analysis of Variance (ANOVA)
12-2: One-Way ANOVA
Analysis of variance (ANOVA) is a method for testing the hypothesis that three or more-
population means are equal.
For example:
H0: µ1 = µ2 = µ3 = . . . µk
H1: At least one mean is different
ANOVA methods require the F-distribution:
1. The F-distribution is not symmetric; it is skewed to the right.
2. The values of F can be 0 or positive, they cannot be negative.
3. There is a different F-distribution for each pair of degrees of freedom for the numerator and
denominator. Critical values of F are given in Table A-5
An Approach to Understanding ANOVA
1. Understand that a small P-value (such as 0.05 or less) leads to the rejection of the null
hypothesis of equal means. With a large P-value (such as greater than 0.05), fail to reject the
null hypothesis of equal means.
2. Develop an understanding of the underlying rationale by studying the example in this section.
3. Become acquainted with the nature of the SS (sum of squares) and MS (mean square) values
and their role in determining the F test statistic, but use statistical software packages or a
calculator for finding those values.
Definition: Treatment (or factor)
A treatment (or factor) is a property or characteristic that allows us to distinguish the different
populations from another. Use Technology for ANOVA calculations if possible
Assumptions
1. The populations have approximately normal distributions.
2. The populations have the same variance 2 (or standard deviation  ).
3. The samples are simple random samples.
4. The samples are independent of each other.
5. The different samples are from populations that are categorized in only one way.
Procedure for testing:
H0: µ1 = µ2 = µ3 = . . .
1. Use Technology to obtain results.
2. Identify the P-value from the display.

8. 8
3. Form a conclusion based on these criteria:
If P-value  , reject the null hypothesis of equal means.
If P-value >  , fail to reject the null hypothesis of equal means.
Example:
A researcher wishes to try three different techniques to lower blood pressure of individuals
diagnosed with high blood pressure. The subjects are randomly assigned to the three groups; the
first takes medication, the second exercises and the third follows a certain diet. After 4 weeks the
reduction in each person’s blood pressure is recorded. α = 0.05

Solution:
Step 1: H0: μ1 = μ2 = μ3 (claim)
H1: At least one mean is different from the others. (RTT, claim)
