Olympic Pole Vault The graph in Figure 7 indicates that in recent years the winning Olympic men’s pole vault height has fallen below the value predicted by the regression line in Example 2. This might have occurred because when the pole vault was a new event there was much room for improvement in vaulters’ performances, whereas now even the best training can produce only incremental advances. Let’s see whether concentrating on more recent results gives a better predictor of future records. (a) Use the data in Table 2 (page 176) to complete the table of winning pole vault heights shown in the margin. (Note that we are using x=0 to correspond to the year 1972, where this restricted data set begins.) (b) Find the regression line for the data in part ‚(a). (c) Plot the data and the regression line on the same axes. Does the regression line seem to provide a good model for the data? (d) What does the regression line predict as the winning pole vault height for the 2012 Olympics? Compare this predicted value to the actual 2012 winning height of 5.97 m, as described on page 177. Has this new regression line provided a better prediction than the line in Example 2?

A doctor wanted to determine whether there is a relation between a male’s age and his HDL (so-called good cholesterol). He randomly selected 9 of his patients and determined their HDL cholesterol. The data is reported in the table below: a) Compute the regression equation for HDL as a function of age. b)Interpret the meaning of the regression parameters.
A simple linear regression model was created to examine the relationship between the age of patients in years (i.e. the independent variable) and the patients' scores on a questionnaire that measures quality of life (i.e. the dependent variable). There were n=20 patients in the study, and some of the results of the regression are presented below: Estimated slope = -0.64 Standard error of the slope = 0.52 Estimated intercept = 42.0 Standard error of the intercept = 13.6 Based on these results, what would be the expected quality of life score for a patient who is 30 years old?

Question 16 options: The intercept is not significantly different from 0, but the slope is significantly different than 0. Thus, we have mixed results and we cannot make a definitive statement about the significance of the association. There is a significant association, because the intercept is statistically significantly different than 0 (p<0.05). There is not a…
