Textbook Question
Chapter 9.2, Problem 8P
For Problems 7–18, please do the following.
- (a) Draw a
scatter diagram displaying the data. - (b) Verify the given sums ∑x, ∑y, ∑x2, ∑y2, and ∑xy and the value of the sample
correlation coefficient r. - (c) Find
- (d) Graph the least-squares line on your scatter diagram. Be sure to use the point
- (e) Interpretation Find the value of the coefficient of determination r2. What percentage of the variation in y can be explained by the corresponding variation in x and the least-squares line? What percentage is unexplained?
8. Ranching: Cattle You are the foreman of the Bar-S cattle ranch in Colorado. A neighboring ranch has calves for sale, and you are going to buy some to add to the Bar-S herd. How much should a healthy calf weigh? Let x be the age of the calf (in weeks), and let y be the weight of the calf (in kilograms). The following information is based on data taken from The Merck Veterinary Manual (a reference used by many ranchers).
Complete parts (a) through (e), given ∑x = 92, ∑y = 617, ∑x2 = 2338, ∑y2 = 82,389, ∑xy = 13,642, and r ≈ 0.998.
- (f) The calves you want to buy are 12 weeks old. What does the least-squares line predict for a healthy weight?

How should we analyze the data?”
The data in Table 7–6 were collected in a clinical trial to evaluate a new compound designed to improve wound healing in trauma patients. The new compound was com- pared against a placebo. After treatment for 5 days with the new compound or placebo, the extent of wound heal- ing was measured. Is there a difference in the extent of wound healing between the treatments? (Hint: Are treat- ment and the percent wound healing independent?) Run the appropriate test at a 5% level of significance. Can you please show how to do it in excel.
