Chapter 16.1, Problem 8E

Corvette, Ferrari, and Jaguar produced a variety of classic cars that continue to increase in value. The following data, based upon the Martin Rating System for Collectible Cars, show the rarity rating (1-20) and the high price ($1000) for 15 classic cars.

Year Make Model Rating Price ($1000)
19S4 Chevrolet Corvette 18 1600.0
1956 Chevrolet Corvette 265/225-hp 19 4000.0
1963 Chevrolet Corvette coupe (340-bhp 4-speed) 18 1000.0
197S Chevrolet Corvette coupe Silver Anniversary 19 1300.0
1960-1963 Ferrari 250 GTE 2+2 16 350.0
1962-1964 Ferrari 250 GTL Lusso 19 2650.0
1962 Ferrari 250 GTO 18 375.0
1967-196S Ferrari 275 GTB/4 NART Spyder 17 450.0
196S-1973 Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona 17 140.0
1962-1967 Jaguar E-type OTS 15 77.5
1969-1971 Jaguar E-type Series II OTS 14 62.0
1971-1974 Jaguar E-type Series III OTS 16 125.0
1951-1954 Jaguar XK 120 roadster (steel) 17 400.0
1950-1953 Jaguar XK C-type 16 250.0
1956-1957 Jaguar XKSS 13 70.0
  1. a. Develop a scatter diagram of the data using the rarity rating as the independent variable and price as the independent variable. Does a simple linear regression model appear to be appropriate?
  2. b. Develop an estimated multiple regression equation with x = rarity rating and x2 as the two independent variables.
  3. c. Consider the nonlinear relationship shown by equation (16.7). Use logarithms to develop an estimated regression equation for this model.
  4. d. Do you prefer the estimated regression equation developed in part (b) or part (c)? Explain.

Question 1 The data shown in Table 1 are and R values for 24 samples of size n = 5 taken from a process producing bearings. The measurements are made on the inside diameter of the bearing, with only the last three decimals recorded (i.e., 34.5 should be 0.50345). Table 1: Bearing Diameter Data Sample Number I R Sample Number I R 1 34.5 3 13 35.4 8 2 34.2 4 14 34.0 6 3 31.6 4 15 37.1 5 4 31.5 4 16 34.9 7 5 35.0 5 17 33.5 4 6 34.1 6 18 31.7 3 7 32.6 4 19 34.0 8 8 33.8 3 20 35.1 9 34.8 7 21 33.7 2 10 33.6 8 22 32.8 1 11 31.9 3 23 33.5 3 12 38.6 9 24 34.2 2 (a) Set up and R charts on this process. Does the process seem to be in statistical control? If necessary, revise the trial control limits. [15 pts] (b) If specifications on this diameter are 0.5030±0.0010, find the percentage of nonconforming bearings pro- duced by this process. Assume that diameter is normally distributed. [10 pts] 1
4. (5 pts) Conduct a chi-square contingency test (test of independence) to assess whether there is an association between the behavior of the elderly person (did not stop to talk, did stop to talk) and their likelihood of falling. Below, please state your null and alternative hypotheses, calculate your expected values and write them in the table, compute the test statistic, test the null by comparing your test statistic to the critical value in Table A (p. 713-714) of your textbook and/or estimating the P-value, and provide your conclusions in written form. Make sure to show your work. Did not stop walking to talk Stopped walking to talk Suffered a fall 12 11 Totals 23 Did not suffer a fall | 2 Totals 35 37 14 46 60 T
