- What does the y -intercept on the graph of a logistic equation correspond to for a population modeled by that equation?arrow_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_forwardResearchers collected information on several species of fish in a Finnish lake. Two of the variables measured on the smelt were total length (nose to tip, in cm), and weight (grams).

- 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. The research question is How accurately can work stress be predicted from linear combination of the predictors (age, social support, number of years at the workplace)? Conduct a multiple regression analysis to answer the following questions: What is the regression equation for all the predictors? Write a results section based on your analysis that answers the research question.arrow_forwardBill wants to explore factors affecting work stress.

Fuel efficiency can depend on a variety of variables. In this analysis, there are 73 automobiles that are popular with consumers. A regression analysis has been performed; the dependent variable is CityMPG (EPA miles per gallon in city driving), and independent variables are Length (vehicle length in inches), Width (vehicle width in inches), Weight (vehicle weight in pounds), and ManTran (1 if manual shift transmission, 0 otherwise). The level of significance is 0.05. Use the following MegaStat output to answer questions about this regression analysis. a. State the regression equation. b. How would CityMPG be affected if the width of a vehicle increased by an inch? c. Estimate the CityMPG for a vehicle with a length of 190 inches, a width of 75 inches, a weight of 4100 pounds, and a manual. Round your answer to the nearest…arrow_forward

- Beachcomber Ltd in a local car dealership that sells used and new vehicles. The manager of the company wants to know how different variables affect the sales of his vehicles. A random sample of yearly data was taken with the view to testing the model: SALES=?+?AGE+?MIL+?ENG Where SALES= amount that a vehicle is sold for($000’s), AGE = age of the vehicle, MIL= the total mileage of the vehicle at the point of sale and ENG = the size of the engine. The sample of data was processed using MINITAB and the following is an extract of the output obtained: d) Hence test whether ? is significant. Give reasons for your answer. e) Perform the F Test making sure to state the null and alternative hypothesis. f) Given an interpretation of the term “R-sq” and comment on its value.arrow_forwardBeachcomber Ltd in a local car dealership that sells used and new vehicles.
