Question 2

Multiple Choice

A random sample of 50 adult men in Toronto were randomly selected in order to investigate the correlation between their heights and weights.In order to compute a bootstrap confidence interval for the difference in population means,280 subsequent bootstrap samples were taken and the resulting values of the sample correlation were ordered from lowest to highest.The first 10 and last 10 ordered values of sample correlation are given below: First 10: 0.23,0.26,0.31,0.33,0.37,0.38,0.41,0.42,0.43,0.44
Last 10: 0.66,0.67,0.70,0.73,0.75,0.76,0.79,0.81,0.85,0.88
Use the percentile method to compute a 95% bootstrap confidence interval for the true correlation between the heights and weights of adult men in Toronto.
