The profit of a company increased steadily over a ten-year span. The following ordered pairs show the number of units sold in hundreds and the profit in thousands of units over the ten-year span, (number of units sold, profit) for specific recorded years: (46,250), (48,305), (50,350), (52,390), (54,410) a) Use linear regression to determine a function y, where profit in thousands of dollars depends on the number of units sold in hundreds. b) Predict when the profit will exceed one million dollars.

Tom has been gathering data concerning the cost of a spa treatment, y', during the before Valentine's Day. The only independent variable that he has considered is the number of minutes, "x," in the treatment. Suppose Tom collects data on the relationship between the number of minutes in a treatment and the resulting cost of we the treatment. Tom finds that the correlation between cost and number of minutes is strong and positive. Therefore, he has performed a linear regression analysis on his data. His results are that the constant "a" is 35, and the coefficient "b1" for the independent variable is 1.3. Which of the following is the correct linear regression equation that would allow Tom to predict the cost of a spa treatment given the number of minutes? Oy = 78x + 35 Oy' = 1.3x + 35 %3D Oy = 78x - 1.3 %3D OY = -1.3x - 35
The flow rate in a device used for air quality measurement depends on the pressure drop x (inches of water) across the device's filter. Suppose that for x values between 5 and 20, these two variables are related according to the simple linear regression model with true regression line y = -0.11 + 0.097x. (a.1) What is the true average flow rate for a pressure drop of 10 in.?(a.2) A drop of 15 in.?(b) What is the true average change in flow rate associated with a 1 inch increase in pressure drop?(c) What is the average change in flow rate when pressure drop decreases by 5 in.?
A weight-loss clinic wants to use regression analysis to build a model for weight loss of a client (measured in pounds), Two variables thought to affect weight loss are client's length of time on the weight-loss program and time of session These variables are described below: Y-BO+B1'X+82'D 83'X'D+E Y-Weight loss (in pounds) X- Length of time in weight-loss program (in months) D-1 if morning session.

Select the appropriate interpretation for the slope of the linear regression equation below. Y (Dependent Variable) = Grade Point Average X (Independent Variable) = Average number of hours spent using electronic devices for entertainment purposes yhat = 4 - 0.125*X A. For every 1 hour more spent using electronic devices for entertainment per week then a person's GPA will increase on average by 0.125 points B. For every 1 GPA gained obtained by a student then on average that person will have watched 0.125 hours fewer of entertainment on electronic devices per week C. For every 1 GPA point lost by a student then on average that person will have watched 0.125 hours more of entertainment on electronic devices per week D. For every 1 hour more spent using electronic devices for entertainment per week then a person's GPA will decrease on average by 0.125 points
A box office analyst seeks to predict opening weekend box office gross for movies. Toward this goal, the analyst plans to use online trailer views as a predictor. For each of the 66 movies, the number of online trailer views from the release of the trailer through the Saturday before a movie opens and the opening weekend box office gross (in millions of dollars) are collected and stored in the accompanying table. A linear regression was performed on these data, and the result is the linear regression equation Yi=−0.840+1.4108Xi. Determine the coefficient of determination,r2,and interpret its meaning. Determine the standard error of the estimate. How useful do you think this regression model is for predicting opening weekend box office gross? Can you think of other variables that might explain the variation in opening weekend box office gross?

A particular article used a multiple regression model to relate y = yield of hops to x₁ = mean temperature (°C) between date of coming into hop and date of picking and x₂ = mean percentage of sunshine during the same period. The model equation proposed is the following. y = 415.116.6x₁4.50x2+e (a) Suppose that this equation does indeed describe the true relationship. What mean yield corresponds to a temperature of 20 and a sunshine percentage of 39? (b) What is the mean yield when the mean temperature and percentage of sunshine are 19.1 and 42, respectively? You may need to use the appropriate table in Appendix A to answer this question.
