  1. Using the table below, construct a table displaying the joint and marginal frequencies

  2. A public opinion survey explored the relationship between age and support for increasing the minimum wage. The results are found in the following two-way frequency table. • In the 41 to 60 age group, what percentage supports increasing the minimum wage? What type of probability is this? Joint, marginal, or conditional? • Out of the people that have no opinion, what percentage is over 60 years old? • Compute the marginal & joint frequencies

  3. Regression Correlation vs. Causation

  4. Correlation Causation Means that one thing will cause the other. A statistical way to measure the relationship between two sets of data. Means that both things are observed at the same time.

  5. There is a correlation (relationship) between the number of firemen fighting a fire and the size of the fire. (The more firefighters at the scene means that there is a bigger fire.) However, this doesn’t mean that bringing more firemen will cause the size of the fire to increase You can have correlation without causation

  6. Is it Causation or Correlation? Ex 1. A recent study showed that college students were more likely to vote than their peers who were not in school. Correlation Ex 2. Dr. Shaw noticed that there was more trash in the hallways after 2nd period than 1st period. Correlation Ex 3. You hit your little sister and she cries Causation

  7. Correlation is measured by the correlation coefficient, R. • R is a number between -1 and 1. • There are 4 traits to correlation: • Form • Direction • Strength • Outliers Measuring Correlation

  8. Linear Quadratic No Correlation Cubic FORM  Exponential         

  9. Positive Correlation Negative Correlation Direction

  10. Weak ---------------------------> Strong R value (correlation coefficient) 0 ---------------------------> 1 Strength

  11. Data that doesn’t fit in Outliers

  12. Put the correlation coefficients in order from weakest to strongest Ex 1: 0.87, -0.81, 0.43, 0.07, -0.98 Ex 2: 0.32, -0.65, 0.63, -0.42, 0.04 0.07, 0.43, -0.81, 0.87, & -0.98 0.04, 0.32, -0.42, 0.63, & -0.65

  18. Positive, Negative, or No Correlation? • The number of hours you work vs. The amount of money in your bank account Positive B. The number of hours workers receive safety training vs. The number of accidents on the job. Negative C. The number of students at Hillgrovevs. The number of dogs in Atlanta No Correlation

  19. Positive, Negative, or No Correlation? D. The number of heaters sold vs. The months in order from February to July Negative E. The number of rice dishes eaten vs. The number of cars on I-75 throughout the day No Correlation F. The number of calories burned/lost vs. The amount of hours walked Positive
