Chapter 25, Problem 20E
GPA and SATs A large section of Stat 101 was asked to fill out a survey on grade point average and SAT scores. A regression was run to find out how well Math and Verbal SAT scores could predict academic performance as measured by GPA. The regression was run on a computer package with the following output:
Response: GPA
- a) What is the regression equation?
- b) From this model, what is the predicted GPA of a student with an SAT Verbal score of 500 and an SAT Math score of 550?
- c) What else would you want to know about this regression before writing a report about the relationship between SAT scores and grade point averages? Why would these be important to know?

- KidsFeet Regression Analysis Code The KidsFeet dataframe contains data collected on 39 fourth grade students in Ann Arbor, MI, in October 1997. Two of the measurements taken on the children were the length in centimeters, (length), and width in centimeters, (width), of their longest foot. This data could be used to answer the following Research Question: How is the width of a fourth-grade student's foot related to the length? Which of the following lines of code resulted in the following plot and regression analysis? Hint: More than one choice may be correct. ## ## Simple Linear Regression## ## Correlation coefficient r = 0.6411 ## ## Equation of Regression Line:## ## length = 9.817 + 1.658 * width ## ## Residual Standard Error: s = 1.025 ## R^2 (unadjusted): R^2 = 0.411 ( ) KidsFeetMod<-lmGC(length~width,data=KidsFeet) KidsFeetMod ( ) lmGC(width~length,data=KidsFeet,graph=TRUE) ( ) KidsFeetMod<-lmGC(width~length,data=KidsFeet)…arrow_forwardA sales manager collected the following data on annual sales for new customer accounts and the number of years of experience for a sample of 10 salespersons.

We are interested in predicting body fat based on abdomen circumference. Find the equation of the regression line relating to body fat and abdomen circumference. Make a scatter-plot with a regression line. What body fat percent does the line predict for a person with an abdomen circumference of 110 cm? One of the men in the study had an abdomen circumference of 92.4 cm and a body fat of 22.5 percent. Find the residual that corresponds to this observation.

Consider two models: Big and Small. Both models are predicting Exam Tot. Big uses four variables (Female?, Year, Time, and H Total) to predict Exam Tot. Small uses two variables (Time and H Total) to predict Exam Tot. Run a regression for each model. Which one is a better model? Small is better, but it's arguable that Big is better Clearly Big Both are equally good / It's hard to tell. Big is better, but it's arguable that Small is better Clearly Smallarrow_forward
