KEY: Probability of choosing BR or RB = P(BR) + P(RB) = 1/3

KEY: P(B) = ½

4. For a biology project, Luciana surveyed the heights and shoe sizes of her friends.

(a) Find the value of r.

(b) Describe the correlation between height and shoe size for Luciana's friends
 Use your GDC to calculate the standard deviation (σx)

8. SCUBA divers have maximum dive times they cannot exceed when going to different depths.
This table shows the times for certain depths.

(a) Let L1 be the regression line of y on x that can be written in the form y= mx+ c.
Write down the equation for L1.

(b) Interpret the meaning of

(i) the gradient m;

(ii) the y-intercept c;

(c) Let L2 be the regression line of x on y that can be written in the form x = ay +b.
Write down the equation for L2.

(d) Interpret the meaning of

(i) the gradient a

(ii) the x-intercept b
