Suppose a researcher collects data on the bacterial contamination, measured in colony-forming unit per milliliter, for both upstream and downstream sections of 35 rivers. The data is plotted with upstream bacterial contamination on the horizontal axis and downstream bacterial contamination on the vertical axis. The Scioto River is an outlier in the ?y‑direction. What must be true about this river? The upstream bacterial contamination for this river is much higher or lower than the rest of the rivers in the data set. The downstream bacterial contamination for this river is much higher or lower than other rivers in the data set that have similar upstream bacterial contamination. This river is an influential observation. The downstream bacterial contamination for this river is much higher or much lower than the rest of the rivers in the data set. The absolute value of the residual of this river is large.

8. In an investigation to empirically determine the value of 1, a student measures the circumference and diameter of several circles of varying size and uses Excel to make a linear plot of circumference versus diameter (both in units of meters). A linear regression fit yields the result of: y = 3.1527x - 0.0502, with R2= 0.9967 for the 5 data points plotted. How should this student report the final result? Does the empirical ratio of C/D agree with the accepted value of n?
Show necessary calculation/justification for each answer. a) In regression analysis, the residuals represent the:a. difference between the actual y values and their predicted values.b. difference between the actual x values and their predicted values.c. square root of the slope of the regression line.d. change in y per unit change in x. b) The least squares method for determining the best fit minimizes:a. total variation in the dependent variableb. sum of squares for errorc. sum of squares for regressiond. All of these choices are true. c) The regression line has been fitted to the data points (4, 8), (2, 5), and (1, 2).The sum of the squared residuals will be:a. 7b. 15c. 8d. 22
