1. The 1999 win-loss statistics for the American<br />

League East baseball teams on a particular<br />

date is shown in the accompanying chart.<br />

3. Quadrilateral KATE has vertices K(1,5),<br />

A(4,7), T(7,3), and E(1,-1).<br />

a Prove that KATE is a trapezoid. [The use of<br />

the grid is optional.]<br />

b Prove that KATE is not an isosceles<br />

trapezoid.<br />

Find the mean for the number of wins, W,<br />

and the mean for the number of losses, L,<br />

and determine if the point (W, L ) is a point<br />

on the line of best fit. Justify your answer.<br />

2. Two different tests were designed to measure<br />

understanding of a topic. The two tests were<br />

given to ten students with the following<br />

results:<br />

Construct a scatter plot for these scores, and<br />

then write an equation for the line of best fit<br />

(round slope and intercept to the nearest<br />

hundredth).<br />

4. The tide at a boat dock can be modeled by the<br />

π<br />

equation y =− 2 cos( t) + 8,<br />

where t is the<br />

6<br />

number of hours past noon and y is the height<br />

of the tide, in feet. For how many hours<br />

between t = 0 and t = 12 is the tide at least 7<br />

feet? [The use of the grid is optional.]<br />

Find the correlation coefficient.<br />

Predict the score, to the nearest integer, on<br />

test y for a student who scored 87 on test x.<br />
