- Suppose two variables are under study are temperature in degrees Fahrenheit (y) and temperature in degrees centigrade (x). The regression line for this situation is y = 9/5X +32. Assuming there is no error in observing temperature, What is the expected correlation coefficient in this given scenario. Answer:arrow_forwardA doctor collects data on all the men in his practice. Their daily potassium intake is 4500 mg/day, with a standard deviation of 1000 mg/day. They have an average systolic blood pressure of 150 mmHg, with a standard deviation of 10 mmHg. The two variables have correlation r = 3. -0.4. (a) One of the men is at the 25 percentile of potassium intake and 75 percentile of blood pressure. Relative to all other men at the 25th percentile potassium intake, this man's blood pressure is (circle one) smaller than average about average larger than average Justify your answer using a written explanation and/or a diagram.arrow_forward1) The ratio of the regression mean square to the error mean square is: (a)Usually assumed to be 0.05 (b)The correlation coefficient (c)The covariance (d)The F ratio 2)The coefficient of determination, R2, ... a.
