Part d, e

Q4: In an experiment on a new drug for allergy, a sample of ten patients was selected and
each given a dose (in milligrams) of the drug and the number of days of relief from allergy
observed. The data obtained is given below:
Dose ( x )
Days of relief ( y ) | 9 5 12 9 14 16 22 18 24 22
3 3 4 5 6 6 7 8 8 9
x = 59 y = 151 a? = 389 y² = 2651
> ry = 1003
(a) Find the equation of the least squares line.
(b) Explain the meaning of the value of the slope you obtained in this problem.
(c) Calculate and interpret the coefficient of determination.
(d) Predict the number of days of relief for a patient who were given 8 milligrams of the
drug.
(e) Does the data indicate that the number of days of relief and the dose are positively
correlated? (Use a = 0.05)
