Forensic scientists can learn about events at a crime scene by collecting data. Ex: Properties of
glass shards at a crime scene such as chemical composition can indicate what type of glass was
broken at the scene. Possible types include building glass (building windows or doors), vehicle glass
(car windows or doors), or household glass (lightbulbs, baking dishes).
The fitted logistic regression model for predicting whether a glass shard is building glass based on
sodium is:
=
20.02+(-1.42) (sodium)
1+e20.02+(-1.42) (sodium)
Calculate the log-odds that a glass shard with sodium = 13.08 is building glass.
Ex: 1.23
C
Calculate the probability that a glass shard with sodium = 13.08 is building glass.
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.

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.

- 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.

One of the goals of the study was to quantify the relationship between 24-hr urinary sodium (y) and estimated 24-hr urinary sodium(x) from casual urinary specimens at one point in time. The investigators presented a simple linear regression of y on x, separately for men and women. The regression equation for men was : Y= 1.03X-7.19 with R2=0.27,n=1369 a.
