AP Statistics - Investigative Task - Chapter 9: Olympic Long Jumps

The linear model of Olypic Long Jumps since 1896 has a positive slope of about 0.64. This indicates that every increase in 4 years results in an increase in distance of about 0.64 inches. There is a dramatic

increase in distance from 1896 to 1900. This may be due to inexperience in dealing with the new Olympic Games. As such, I have removed that date from my subset of data. Gaps are found in the data from

1913 to 1919, from 1937-1947, and from 1949-1951. Following each of those dates are decreases in distance at the Olympic Long Jumps. The gaps and the decreases are most likely explained by war. I

have also removed all dates from my subset except the thirteen most recent Olympicevents, as advances in technology and in the world in general makes most earlier data irrelevant. Doing so, however, drops

the correlation about .26, and the R-squared has dropped about 44%. The residual of this data betrays a curve, which explains the ineffective linear model. The categorical X values may be to blame.

  • R=.64
  • R-squared = 41%
  • Slope = 0.4846153846
  • Y-intercept = -627.4653846

Using this model, I predict the Long Jump length for 2008 to be around 345.64 inches. The actual Long Jump length was about 328.35 inches, making the residual for the data around 17.29 inches

What are the rules for the Olympics?

If you put all the rules together, you would probably have a collection the size of which would rival the legal codes of developed nations. Start with the link below, and then narrow down your search, perhaps by specific sport.it depends what sport.obviously you cant chet for any of them but type in what sport your looking for.With its 5 chapters and 61 articles, the Olympic Charter outlines in detail several guidelines and rules. This article highlights and summarizes those items considered most important to governing the Olympic Games, the Olympic movement, and its 3 main constituents: the International Olympic Committee, the International Federations, and the National Olympic Committees.Chapter 1: The Olympic Movement and its ActionArticle 2: The mission of the IOC is to promote Olympism throughout the world and to lead the Olympic Movement. This includes upholding ethics in sports, encouraging participation in sports, ensuring the Olympic Games take place on a regular schedule, protecting the Olympic Movement, and encouraging and supporting the development of sport. Article 6: The Olympic Games are competitions between athletes in individual or team events and not between countries.Article 8: The Olympic symbol consists of five interlocking rings which, from left to right are blue, yellow, black, green and red.Chapter 3: The International Federations (IFs)Chapter 3 discusses the role of International Federations (IFs) in the Olympic movement. IFs are international non-governmental organizations that administer to sports at the world level and encompass organizations administering such sports at the national level. For each sport that is part of the Olympic Games, an International Federation exists. These IFs work to ensure their sports are developed in a way that agrees with the Olympic Charter and the Olympic spirit. With technical expertise in its particular sport, an IF has control over eligibility for competition as well as details of the venue in which the athletic competition takes place. Chapter 4: The National Olympic Committees (NOCs)Article 28: The mission of the National Olympic Committees (NOCs) is to develop, promote and protect the Olympic Movement in their respective countries. The role of NOCs within each country is to promote the spirit of Olympicism, ensure the observance of the Olympic Charter, and to encourage ethics in and development of sports. They are in charge of their country's representation at the Games, deciding on a host city for the Games, and cooperation with governmental and non-governmental bodies during the Games. Chapter 5: The Olympic GamesThis chapter addresses the celebration of the Olympic Games, the selection of the host city, the eligibility code for participation in the games, those sports included in the Games, media coverage, publications, and propaganda allowed for the Games. In addition, Section 3 of this chapter discusses applicable protocol for Olympic functions and events. This includes an outline of use of the Olympic flag, flame, and opening and closing ceremonies.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olympic_Charter#Main_Components_of_the_Olympic_Charter
