The following regression model was estimated. Q is the number of meals served, P is the average price per meal (customer ticket amount, in dollars), Rxis the average price charged by competitors (in dollars), Ad is the local advertising budget for each outlet (in dollars), and I is the average income per household in each outlet's immediate service area. Least squares estimation of the regression equation on the basis of the 25 data observations resulted in the estimated regression coefficients and other statistics given in Table below.

Stoaches are fictional creatures that nest in truffula forests. A researcher wants to know whether there is a relationship between a stoach’s wingspan (?W, the predictor) and its nest height (?H, the response). A sample of 88 stoaches is observed, and for each, the wing-span (in cm) and the nest height (in m) are recorded. The observed data meet the assumptions for a linear regression, so the researcher fits the regression model and obtains a regression equation ℎ̂=−0.813+0.177?,h^=−0.813+0.177w, with standard error for the coefficient of ?w equal to 0.448. Determine the ?p-value from a test for a statistically significant linear dependence of nest height on wing-span. (Give your answer to 4 decimal places.
Listed below are the overhead widths (cm) of seals measured from photographs and weights (kg) of the seals. Find the regression equation, letting the overhead width be the predictor (x) variable. Find the best predicted weight of a seal if the overhead width measured from a photograph is 1.8 cm, using the regression equation. Can the prediction be correct? If not, what is wrong?

The City of Bellmore’s police chief believes that maintenance costs on high-mileage police vehicles are much higher than those costs for low-mileage vehicles. If high-mileage vehicles are costing too much, it may be more economical to purchase more vehicles. An analyst in the department regresses yearly maintenance costs (Y) for a sample of 200 police vehicles on each vehicle’s total mileage for the year (X). The regression equation finds: Y = $50 + .030X with a r2 of .90 What is the IV? What is the DV? If the mileage increases by one mile, what is the predicted increase in maintenance costs? If a vehicle’s mileage for the year is 50,000, what is its predicted maintenance costs? What does an r2 of .90 tell us? Is this a strong or weak correlation? How can you tell?
