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?

We have data on Lung Capacity of persons and we wish to build a multiple linear regression model that predicts Lung Capacity based on the predictors Age and Smoking Status. Age is a numeric variable whereas Smoke is a categorical variable (0 if non-smoker, 1 if smoker). Here is the partial result from STATISTICA. b* Std.Err. of b* Std.Err. N=725 of b Intercept Age Smoke 0.835543 -0.075120 1.085725 0.555396 0.182989 0.014378 0.021631 0.021631 -0.648588 0.186761 Which of the following statements is absolutely false? A. The expected lung capacity of a smoker is expected to be 0.648588 lower than that of a non-smoker. B. The predictor variables Age and Smoker both contribute significantly to the model. C. For every one year that a person gets older, the lung capacity is expected to increase by 0.555396 units, holding smoker status constant. D. For every one unit increase in smoker status, lung capacity is expected to decrease by 0.648588 units, holding age constant.
