Question

a, b, c is already solved please if you could solve questions d & e.

Provide an appropriate response.

The data below are the temperatures on randomly chosen days during the summer and the number of employee absences at a local company on those days. 

(a) Find the least square regression line.  Round slope and y-intercept nearest hundredth. - solved

(b) Predict the number of absences when temperature is 88. - solved

(c) Find the residual when temperature is 98.   Analyze the result.  - solved

(d) Test the claim, at the α = 0.05 level of significance, that a linear relation exists between the temperature and number of absences.  Apply classical approach and p-value approach. - needs to get solved

(e) Find 95 % confidence interval about the slope fo the true least-square regression line.  Interpret the result.  - needs to get solved

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given:

Statistics homework question answer, step 1, image 1

number of observation = 9

As the above parts are already solved so, the regression line of y on x (or number of absences on temperature) is

Step 2

d)

Testing whether linear correlation exists between number of absences and temperature

The null hypothesis and alternate hypothesis are

H0 : β = 0 (there is no linear relation between number of absences and temperature)

H1 : β ≠ 0 (there exists linear relation between number of absences and temperature)

Degree of freedom = n - 1 

                                9 - 1 = 8

Test static

Under null hypothesis

The test value is 13.03.

α = 0.05

The critical value t0.025|7 = 2.365

As the test static values does not lies between -2.365 and 2.365, so there is sufficient evidence to reject null hypothesis at 5% significant level and conclude that there exists a linear correlation between number of absences and temperature.

P value

The test is two tailed

P( t0.025|7 < 13.03 ) = 0.999998
P(t0.025|7  > 13.03 ) = 0.00000182609
P(t0.025|7  < -13.03 ) + P(t0.025|7  >13.03) = 0.00000365219

As P value < α , so there is sufficient evidence to reject null hypothesis at 5% significant level and conclude that there exists a linear correlation between number of absences and temperature.
