1. Thirteen students entered the undergraduate business program at Rollins College 2 years ago.
The following table indicates what their grade-point averages (GPAs) were after being in the
program for 2 years and what each student scored on the SAT (Scholastic Assessment Test)
exam (maximum 2400) when he or she was in high school. Is there a meaningful relationship
between grades and SAT scores? If a student scores a 1200 on the SAT, what do you think his
or her GPA will be? What about a student who scores 2400?
