Jesse takes two data points from the weight
and feed cost data set to calculate a slope, or
average rate of change. A rat weighs 3.5
pounds and costs $4.50 per week to feed,
while a Beagle weighs 30 pounds and costs
$9.20 per week to feed.
Using weight as the explanatory variable, what
is the slope of the line between these two
points? Answer choices are rounded to the
nearest hundredth.
$1.60 / lb.

In order to get slope, we can use the formula:
.
Using the information provided, the two
points are: (3.5 lb., $4.50) and (30 lb., $9.20).

RATIONALE
Recall that correlation is not sufficient alone to
assess causality, however it is necessary. So
for something to be causal, it must have a
strong association.

Joe is measuring the widths of doors he bought
to install in an apartment complex. He
measured 72 doors and found a mean width of
36.1 inches with a standard deviation of 0.3
inches. To test if the doors differ significantly
from the standard industry width of 36 inches,
he computes a z-statistic.
What is the value of Joe's z-test statistic?
