5. At 60°F a particular blend of automotive gasoline weights 6.17 lb/gal. The weight y of
gasoline on a tank truck that is loaded with x gallons of gasoline is given by the linear
equation Y = 6.17x
a. Explain whether the relationship between the weight y and the amount x of gasoline
has an element of randomness.
b. Predict the weight of gasoline on a tank truck that has just been loaded with 6,750
gallons of gasoline.

In a survey that included assessment of husband-and-wife heights, Hodges, Krech, and Crutchfield (1975) reported the following results. Let’s treat wife height as the predictor (X) variable and husband height as the outcome (Y) variable: rXY=.32 Wifeheight: MX=64.42, sX=2.56 Husbandheight: MY=70.46, sY=2.87 N=1,296 Calculate the values of the b0 and b coefficients to predict husband height in inches (Y) from wife height in inches (X) and write out this raw-score predictive equation. For a woman who is 62 in. tall, what is the predicted height of her future husband (on the basis of your equation for part a)? If her husband’s actual height turns out to be 73 in., what can you say about the difference between predicted and actual height? Do some short women marry tall men? Would the equation to predict wife height from husband height be the same as your equation in part a? Why or why not? What proportion of variance in husband height is predictable from wife height? What proportion of…
A farmer would like to investigate the relationship between the obtained yield of apple trees and the amount of weeds found in their roots. For this reason, nine apple trees of the same type were randomly selected and the amount of weeds in their roots (x grams) was recorded together with their yield (y kilograms). Year #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 #6 #7 #8 #9 #10 Weeds in roots (x) 30 28 32 25 25 24 22 24 35 40 Yield (y) 25 30 27 40 42 41 50 45 30 25 Draw a scatter diagram of these data. Label the diagram carefully. Calculate the sample correlation coefficient. Interpret your findings. Calculate the least squares line of y on x and draw the line on the scatter diagram. Based on the regression equation in part (iii.), what will be the predicted yield of apple for a tree with 37 grams of weeds in its roots? Will you trust this value? Justify your answer. Briefly comment on…

The amount of time a student devotes to class attendance and revision: and the grade obtained are assumed to be linearly related. In a small class of 15 students, the following results were obtained for this linear relationship. Y = 30 +2.50.Y (0.55) (2.96) R'= 0.85 The standard errors are in parenthesis. a,Test the hypothesis that the intereept and slope are individually equal to zero (0) at the S% level of signiticance. (b) Construct n 95% conlidence interval for the true slope. (c)Compute the elasticity of grades with respect to time input and interpret your results. (d) Interpret your R' and explain how it relates to the slope of the regression line. (e) From the results and your answers in (a) to (d), does time input into class attendance and revision really influence the final grade?
