O REGRESSION AND CORRELATION
Predictions from the least.
Managers of an outdoor coffee stand in Coast City are examining the
relationship between (hot) coffee sales and daily temperature, hoping to
be able to predict a day's total coffee sales from the maximum
temperature that day. The bivariate data values for the coffee sales
(denoted by y, in dollars) and the maximum temperature (denoted by x,
in degrees Fahrenheit) for each of fifteen randomly selected days during
the past year are given below. These data are plotted in the scatter plot
in Figure 1.

After deciding on the appropriateness of a linear model relating coffee
sales and maximum temperature, the managers calculate the equation
of the least-squares regression line to be =2516.78 – 10.49x. This is the line
shown in Figure 1.
Answer the following:
1. Fill in the blank: For these data, temperature values that are
greater than the mean of the temperature values tend to be paired
with coffee sales values that are the mean of the coffee sales
Choose one
values.
2. According to the regression equation, for an increase of one degree
in temperature, there is a corresponding decrease of how many
dollars in coffee sales?
10.49
3. What was the observed coffee sales value (in dollars) when the
temperature was 68.3 degrees Fahrenheit?
1800.313
4. From the regression equation, what is the predicted coffee sales
value (in dollars) when the temperature is 68.3 degrees Fahrenheit?
(Round your answer to at least one decimal place.)
