| A | 1, 2, 3, 4 | Chapter ``A'' refers to the handout. | |

| Oct 15 | 6 | 2, 7, 11, 18, 20, 23, 28, 29, 30, 38 | Use a Q-Q Plot for Exercise 38 instead of what the textbook calls a "normal probability plot". |

| (If the book asks you to "calculate" something, and the computer just does it, that's fine. Also note the answers in back of the book are wrong for problems 23, 45.) | |||
| Dec 15 | 11 | 26, 28, 33, 51 | Use the computer for 33 and 51 as explained in the sections on prediction intervals and confidence intervals for the regression function and diagnostic plots of the course Rweb pages. For problem 51 also make a Q-Q plot of the standardized residuals, and explain what it shows about possible outliers or nonnormality. |
Note: If using Rweb to do homework the "dataset URL" you need for the homework problems have the form
http://superior.stat.umn.edu/~charlie/3011/ex0402.dat
This is the data for Exercise 4.2. The "04" in the file name is for
Chapter 4, and the "02" in the file name is for Exercise 2 of this chapter.
All the file names are constructed this way.
You can see what data have been made available by looking in this directory
http://superior.stat.umn.edu/~charlie/3011/
If you see a file with the exercise number in its name, you can use it to
do the exercise.
To figure out the variable names used in the file, see Finding the Names in a Dataset.
