GPA and study time. A survey was conducted on 218 undergraduates from Duke University who took an introductory statistics course in Spring 2012. Among many other questions, this survey asked them about their GPA and the number of hours they spent studying per week. The scatterplot below displays the relationship between these two variables. a) The explanatory variable is and the response variable is ? b) The relationship between the variables is and . c) Is this experiment or an observational study? A. Experiment B. Observational study d) Can we conclude that studying longer hours leads to higher GPAs? A. No. We cannot conclude that studying longer hours leads to higher GPA since this study is observational. B. Yes, we can conclude that studying longer hours leads to higher GPA since this study is an experiment. C. Yes, we can conclude that studying longer hours leads to higher GPA since this study this is an observational study. D. No. We cannot conclude that studying longer hours leads to higher GPA since this study is an experiment. E. We cannot draw any conclusion because the scatterplot has no distinct form.

a) The explanatory variable is hours of study per week and the response variable is GPA.

b) The relantioship between the variables seems to be positive.

c) B. Observational Study.

d) A. NO. We cannot conclude that studying loger hours leads to higher GPA since this study is observational.

Step-by-step explanation: a) Explanatory Variable is a type of independent variable, which means it is a variable that doesn't depend on the other variables. However, in explanatory variable, there is a subtle relation between variables. For that reason, Hours of Study per week is an explanatory variable. Response Variable is the dependent variable, it is the result when you change the other variable. For that reason, GPA is the response variable.

b) Observing the graphic, which is in the attachment, it can be observed that students who study more hours per week, tend to have higher GPA. For example, people who studied 60 hours per week have a GPA closer to 4.

c) Observational Studies are those experiment where the researches only observe their object of interest without changing or interfering in the outcome. Experimental Studies are the ones where the researchers introduce an interference and study their effect on the randomized groups.

Since this experiment is based on observation only, the study is an Observational Study.

d) Because it's an observational study, we can't correlate or associate the variables, since the researchers only obtain their results through observation of the behaviour of the students, without changing it.

step-by-step explanation:

well, you see here, jamal was born to 2 parents, his mother who he lives with and his father who left at a young age and who happens to be younger than him. he stole cookies because he has to steal food due to the fact that he spends his government poverty checks on pot and women.
