The following data represents the winning percentage (the number of wins out of 162 games in a season) as well as the teams Earned Run Average, or ERA.The ERA is a pitching statistic. The lower the ERA, the less runs an opponent will score per game. Smaller ERA's reflect (i) a good pitching staff and (ii) a good team defense. You are to investigate the relationship between a team's winning percentage - Y, and its Earned Run Average (ERA) - X. Winning Proportion - Y Earned Run Average (ERA) - X 0.623457 3.13 0.512346 3.97 0.635802 3.68 0.604938 3.92 0.518519 4.00 0.580247 4.12 0.413580 4.29 0.407407 4.62 0.462963 3.89 0.450617 5.20 0.487654 4.36 0.456790 4.91 0.574047 3.75 (b) Use R-Studio to find the least squares estimate of the linear model that expressed a teams winning percentage as a linear function of is ERA.

Researchers are interested in predicting the height of a child based on the heights of their mother and father. Data were collected, which included height of the child (height ), height of the mother ( mothersheight), and height of the father (fathersheight ). The initial analysis used the heights of the parents to predict the height of the child (all units are inches). The results of the analysis, a multiple regression, are presented below. . regress height mothersheight fathersheight Source Model Residual Total height mothersheight fathersheight _cons SS df 208.008457 314.295372 37 2 104.004228 8.49446952 MS 522.303829 39 13.3924059 Coef.

Suppose the athletic director at a university would like to develop a regression model to predict the point differential for games played by the men's basketball team. A point differential is the difference between the final points scored by two competing teams. A positive differential is a win, and a negative differential is a loss. For a random sample of games, the point differential was calculated, along with the number of assists, rebounds, turnovers, and personal fouls. Use the data in the accompanying table attached below to complete parts a through e below. Assume a = 0.05. a) Using technology, construct a regression model using all three independent variables. y = __ + (_)x1 + (_)x2 + (_)x3 + (_)x4 b) Test the significance of each independent variable using a= 0.10. c) interpret the p-value for each independent variable. d) Construxt a 90% confidence interval for the regression coefficients for each independent variable and interpret the meaning. e) Using the results from…

A regression analysis was performed to predict weight (y, in kg) using height (x, in cm) among 150 children. The coefficient of determination was . Which of the following is a valid interpretation? a. For each 1-cm increase in height, weight tends to increase by about 0.32 kg b. There is no association between weight and height c. Height accounts for about 32% of the total variability in weight d. The correlation between weight and height is about 0.32
