The systolic blood pressure dataset (in the third sheet of the spreadsheet linked above) contains the systolic blood pressure and age of 30 randomly selected patients in a medical facility.
What is the equation for the least square regression line where the independent or predictor variable is age and the dependent or response variable is systolic blood pressure?
Y=__________ X + ______________
Patient 7 is 67 years old and has a systolic blood pressure of 170 mm Hg. What is the residual?
__________ mm Hg
Is the actual value above, below, or on the line?
What is the interpretation of the residual? (difference in actual &predicated bp, difference in age, the amount of systolic changes)
The St. Lucian Government is interested in predicting the number of weekly riders on the public buses using the following variables:
• • • •
Price of bus trips per weekThe population in the cityThe monthly income of ridersAverage rate to park your personal vehicle
Determine the multiple regression equation for the data.
What is the predicted value of the number of weekly riders if: price of bus trips per week = $24; population = $2,000,000; the monthly income of riders = $13,500; and average rate to park your personal vehicle = $150.
Interpret the coefficient of determination.
Bill wants to explore factors affecting work stress. He would like to examine the relationship between age, number of years at the workplace, perceived social support, and work stress. He collects data on the variables from 100 employees (males and females) working in banks.
Conduct a multiple regression analysis to answer the following questions:
What is the relationship of age, number of years, and social support with work stress?
Is the regression significant? If yes, what does it indicate?
What is the regression equation for all the predictors?

- Find the equation of the regression line for the following data set. x 1 2 3 y 0 3 4arrow_forwardOlympic 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?arrow_forwardLife Expectancy The following table shows the average life expectancy, in years, of a child born in the given year42 Life expectancy 2005 77.6 2007 78.1 2009 78.5 2011 78.7 2013 78.8 a.

Intelligibility, the MRT score, is measured as the percent of a spoken sentence that the listener can decipher at a cesl4ain noise level in decibels (dB). The table shows the results of one such test. (a) Make a scatter plot of the data. (b) Find and graph the regression line. (c) Find the correlation coefficient. Is a linear model appropriate? (d) Use the linear model in put (b) to estimate the intelligibility of a sentence at a 94-dB noise level.arrow_forward

Survey your classmates to determine what price they would be willing to pay for a candy bar. Your survey form might look like the sample to the left. a Make a table of the number of respondents who answered yes at each price level. b Make a scatter plot of your data. c Find and graph the regression line y=mp+b, which gives the number of respondents y who would buy a candy bar if the price were p cents. This is the demand equation. Why is the slope m negative? d What is the p-intercept of the demand equation? What does this intercept tell you about pricing candy bars? Would you buy a candy bar from the vending machine in the hallway if the price is as indicated. Price Yes or No 50 75 1.00 1.25 1.50 1.75 2.00arrow_forward
- find the (a) explained variation, (b) unexplained variation, and (c) indicated prediction interval. In each case, there is sujficient evidence to support a claim of a linear correlation, so it is reasonable to use the regression equation when making predictions. Altitude and Temperature Listed below are altitudes (thousands of feet) and outside air temperatures (°F) recorded by the author during Delta Flight 1053 from New Orleans to Atlanta. For the prediction interval, use a 95% confidence level with the altitude of 6327 ft (or 6.327 thousand feet).arrow_forwardA social scientist collects information about counties in California and finds that the correlation between average income of the county and a rating of healthcare quality in the county is 0.78. A scatterplot of the two variables is football shaped. A particular county has an average income that is 0.4 SDs above the average of all counties. Using regression, we would predict that its healthcare quality is _________ SDs above the average healthcare quality for all counties, and that it is therefore at the _________ percentile of healthcare quality among all counties.
