(1 point) A Statistics professor assigned 10 quizzes over the course of the semester. He wanted to see if there was a relationship between the total mark of all 10 quizzes and the final exam mark. There were 258 students who completed all the quizzes and wrote the final exam. The standard deviation of the total quiz marks was 13, and that of the final exam was 18. The correlation between the total quiz mark and the final exam was 0.66. Based on the least squares regression line fitted to the data of the 258 students, if a student scored 16 points above the mean of total quiz marks, then how many points above the mean on the final would you predict her final exam grade to be? The predicted final exam grade is above the mean on the final. Round your answer to one decimal place, but do not round in intermediate steps.

Professor Shannon administered a test (total is 40 points) to one of her science classes. These are the points each of the students received on their tests: 31, 17, 27, 35, 22, 35, 15, 17, 21, 27, 19. The mean of this data set is 24 and the standard deviation of this data set is approximately 7.25. He decides to calculate the test scores from the points using the following formula: Score of the test = 20 + 2 x points Find the mean score of the test Professor Shannon administered a test (total is 40 points) to one of her science classes.

A teacher allows the students to each throw out their lowest test score in order to increase their overall grade. The original mean score of 5 tests is 75.4. After the removal of the lowest test, the mean score becomes 79.25. What is the score of the removed test?
