Answer to Problem 1E

The predicted price of a 2 bedroom, 1,000 sq-ft house in upstate New York is likely to be $99,859.89.

Explanation of Solution

Given info:

The regression model for the price of houses in upstate New York with respect to number of bedrooms and living area is given as:

Price^=20,986.097483.10 Bedrooms+93.84 Living Area.

Calculation:

The given regression equation is:

Price^=20,986.097483.10 Bedrooms+93.84 Living Area

Substitute Bedrooms=2 and Living Area=1,000 in the equation:

Price^=20,986.09(7483.10×2)+(93.84×1,000)=20,986.0914,966.2+93,840=99,859.89.

Thus, the predicted price of a 2 bedroom, 1,000 sq-ft house in upstate New York is likely to be $99,859.89.

Answer to Problem 1E

The residual corresponding to a house that sold for $135,000 is $35,140.11.

Explanation of Solution

Calculation:

Residual:

The residual corresponding to a predictor variable is given as the difference between actual value of the response variable and the predicted value. That is, e=yy^, where y be the actual value of the response variable and y^ be the predicted value of the response variable for same predictor variable.

Put the actual value of ‘price’ as y=135,000 and the predicted value as y^=99,859.89.

Then,

e=135,00099,859.89=35,140.11.

Thus, the residual corresponding to a house that sold for $135,000 is $35,140.11.

Explanation of Solution

Justification:

The real price, at which the house is sold, is $135,000. The regression model predicted that the price of the house would be sold at $99,859.89.

The residual $35,140.11 means that the house is sold at a price of $35,140.11 more than what was predicted.

(a) Test the hypothesis. Consider the hypothesis test Ho = : against H₁o < 02. Suppose that the sample sizes aren₁ = 7 and n₂ = 13 and that $² = 22.4 and $22 = 28.2. Use α = 0.05.

Let us suppose we have some article reported on a study of potential sources of injury to equine veterinarians conducted at a university veterinary hospital. Forces on the hand were measured for several common activities that veterinarians engage in when examining or treating horses. We will consider the forces on the hands for two tasks, lifting and using ultrasound. Assume that both sample sizes are 6, the sample mean force for lifting was 6.2 pounds with standard deviation 1.5 pounds, and the sample mean force for using ultrasound was 6.4 pounds with standard deviation 0.3 pounds. Assume that the standard deviations are known. Suppose that you wanted to detect a true difference in mean force of 0.25 pounds on the hands for these two activities. Under the null hypothesis, 40 = 0. What level of type II error would you recommend here? Round your answer to four decimal places (e.g. 98.7654).
