- Table 2 shows a recent graduate’s credit card balance each month after graduation. a. Use exponential regression to fit a model to these data. b. If spending continues at this rate, what will the graduate’s credit card debt be one year after graduating?arrow_forwardWhat is regression analysis? Describe the process of performing regression analysis on a graphing utility.arrow_forwardWhat might a scatterplot of data points look like if it were best described by a logarithmic model?arrow_forward
- The data below is the amount of tar and nicotine in a sample of different brands of 100 mm, non-menthol, filtered cigarettes. a) Using the calculator, find a linear regression model that gives the amount of nicotine, N, as a function of the amount of tar, t. Write the function below. N(t)= b) use this model of nicotine to estimate the amount of nicotine in a cigarette if the amount of tar is listed as 21 mg. c) What is the correlation coefficient, r, for this model? r= Tar 5 16 17 13 13 14 9 15 2 15 13 14 15 16 7 17 Nicotine 0.4 1 1.2 0.8 0.8 1 0.8 1 0.2 1.1 0.8 1 0.9 1.1 0.6 1.3arrow_forwardData contains brain mass in different species versus glia-neuron ratio, the latter being a measurement of brain metabolism as the glia provides the metabolic needs of the neurons. The relationship between THE LOGARITHM of the brain mass (in the third column) and Glia-neuron ratio (fourth column) appears linear and it is these two variables that we wish to analyze via linear regression. We would like to know if the human brain fits the trend from the other species. Towards this end we will perform the regression on all species EXCEPT humans (Homo sapiens). Again, throw out the human data from your analysis. You will however need the human numbers for some of the questions. What is the lower & upper bound of the 95% confidence interval for the slope of the regression line? What is the value of the t-statistic used to test the null hypothesis of zero slope via a t-test? A t-test would reject the null hypothesis at a 0.05 significance level.
