Consider the following scenario for Questions 6 through 9:
The City of Bellmore’s police chief believes that maintenance costs on high-mileage police vehicles are much higher than those costs for low-mileage vehicles. If high-mileage vehicles are costing too much, it may be more economical to purchase more vehicles. An analyst in the department regresses yearly maintenance costs (Y) for a sample of 200 police vehicles on each vehicle’s total mileage for the year (X). The regression equation finds:
Y = $50 + .030X with a r2 of .90
What is the IV? What is the DV?
If the mileage increases by one mile, what is the predicted increase in maintenance costs?
If a vehicle’s mileage for the year is 50,000, what is its predicted maintenance costs?
What does an r2 of .90 tell us? Is this a strong or weak correlation? How can you tell?

- Find the equation of the regression line for the following data set. x 1 2 3 y 0 3 4arrow_forwardWhat 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_forward

(10 ) According to the PayScale data from 2021, the average starting salaries by college major for bachelor's degree are as follows: $70,600 for mechanical engineering, $56,700 for economics, $43,500 for chemistry, and $47,000 for philosophy. In order to estimate the true difference in the average starting salaries by college major in 2022, 60 graduates with these four majors from the class of 2022 were contacted and questioned about their starting salaries. Propose a regression model with dummy variables that could be used to investigate if starting salaries are different by college major and interpret all the coefficients in the model. 0.000arrow_forward

If you want to test whether type of student modifies the association between hours of sleep per night and daily productivity score, which model should you consider and what is the null hypothesis for this test? 3. Suppose you use Model 5 to describe the relationship between type of student, hours of sleep per night, and daily productivity score. You use the method of least squares to obtain: Y = -0.5 + 3 (X1) + 1.5 (X2) + 2.5 (X1)(X2).arrow_forward
