Suppose that a random sample of 200 twenty-year-old men is selected from a population and that these men's height and weight are recorded. A regression of weight on height yields Woight= (- 101.3982) + 4.0188 x Height, R = 0.83, SER = 10.4, where Weight is measured in pounds and Height is measured in inches. What is the regression's weight prediction for someone who is 71 inches tall? The regression's weight prediction for someone who is 71 inches tall is pounds. (Round your response to two decimal places.) A man has a late growth spurt and grows 1.2 inches over the course of a year. What is the regression's prediction for the increase in this man's weight? The regression's prediction for the increase in this man's weight ispounds. (Round your response to two decimal places.) Suppose that instead of measuring weight and height in pounds and inches these variables are measured in centimeters and kilograms (1 in = 2.54 cm and 1 b = 0.4536 kg). Suppose the regression equation in centimeter-kilogram units is: Weight = 70 +7, Height.

Low-Density Lipoprotein (or LDL) is considered the "bad" cholesterol because it forms plaques in arteries, raising the risk for heart attack and stroke. Suppose you are interested in predicting LDL (in mg/dL) using one's age (in years). Assume that LDL levels and age are normally distributed and that the correlation between the two variables is 0.534. Based solely on the regression effect, a person whose age is at the 60th percentile is predicted to have an LDL level ____. [Source: Ldl cholesterol: Definition, risks, and how to lower it.

Suppose you are estimating a wage regression, where salary is the dependent variable and age, years of education and a dummy variable for male are your independent variables. You are interested in measuring how salary differs between those who have at least a college education with those who have less than a college education. If a person is considered as having a college education when she has more than 12 years of education, how can you measure the difference in salary between college and non-college educated individuals? Select one: a. Multiply coefficient for years of education in original regression by 12 O b. Re-estimate model replacing years of education with a dummy variable for college c. Re-estimate model replacing years of education with a dummy variable for college and one for no college O d. Re-estimate model interacting years of education with a dummy variable for college e. Calculate the difference in predicted salary between an individual with 14 years of education and…
The table below gives the age and bone density for five randomly selected women. Using this data, consider the equation of the regression line, yˆ=b0+b1^x, for predicting a woman's bone density based on her age. Keep in mind, the correlation coefficient may or may not be statistically significant for the data given. Remember, in practice, it would not be appropriate to use the regression line to make a prediction if the correlation coefficient is not statistically significant.

Consider a certain data set on shoulder girth and height of a group of individuals. The mean shoulder girth is 107.20 cm with a standard deviation of 10.37 cm. The mean height is 171.14 cm with a standard deviation of 9.41 cm. The correlation between height and shoulder girth is 0.67. Calculate R2 of the regression line for predicting height from shoulder girth, and interpret it in the context of the application.
