Problem Part Detail The Professional Golfers Association (PGA) maintains data on performance and earnings for members of the PGA Tour. Scoring average is generally considered the most important statistic in terms of success on the PGA Tour. To investigate the relationship between scoring average and variables such as driving distance (DrDist), driving accuracy (DrAccu), and greens in regulation (GIR) year-end performance data for the 125 players who had the highest total earnings in PGA Tour events for 2008 is provided in cells E1 to K126. Scoring average data is in cells H1 to H126. Driving distance (DrDist) data is in cells 11 to 1126. Driving Accuracy (DrAccu) data is in cells J1 to J126. Greens in Regulation (GIR) data is in cells K1 to K126. All data sets have labels in first row. Place output in a separate worksheet. Use regression analysis to investigate the relationship between scoring average and DrDist. At .05 level of a significance, what is your conclusion about the relationship between DrDist and Average score? Use regression analysis to investigate the relationship between scoring average and DrAccu. At .05 level of significance, what is your conclusion about the relationship between DrAccu and Average score? Use regression analysis to investigate the relationship between scoring average and GIR. At .05 level of significance, what is your conclusion about the relationship between GIR and Average score? Which of the variables (DrDist, DrAccu, and GIR) appear to be the most significant? Treating DrDist as the independent variable and DrAccu as the dependent variable investigate the relationship between driving distance and accuracy. At .05 level of significance, what is your conclusion?

Detail
The Professional Golfers Association (PGA) maintains data on performance and earnings for members of the PGA
Tour. Scoring average is generally considered the most important statistic in terms of success on the PGA Tour. To
investigate the relationship between scoring average and variables such as driving distance (DrDist), driving
accuracy (DrAccu), and greens in regulation (GIR) year-end performance data for the 125 players who had the
highest total earnings in PGA Tour events for 2008 is provided in cells E1 to K126. Scoring average data is in cells
H1 to H126. Driving distance (DrDist) data is in cells 11 to 1126. Driving Accuracy (DrAccu) data is in cells J1 to
J126. Greens in Regulation (GIR) data is in cells K1 to K126. All data sets have labels in first row. Place output in a
separate worksheet.
Use regression analysis to investigate the relationship between scoring average and DrDist. At .05 level of
a
significance, what is your conclusion about the relationship between DrDist and Average score?
Use regression analysis to investigate the relationship between scoring average and DrAccu. At .05 level of
significance, what is your conclusion about the relationship between DrAccu and Average score?
Use regression analysis to investigate the relationship between scoring average and GIR. At .05 level of
significance, what is your conclusion about the relationship between GIR and Average score?
Which of the variables (DrDist, DrAccu, and GIR) appear to be the most significant?
Treating DrDist as the independent variable and DrAccu as the dependent variable investigate the relationship
between driving distance and accuracy. At .05 level of significance, what is your conclusion?
