Olympic Pole Vault The graph in Figure 7 indicates that in recent years the winning Olympic men’s pole vault height has fallen below the value predicted by the regression line in Example 2. This might have occurred because when the pole vault was a new event there was much room for improvement in vaulters’ performances, whereas now even the best training can produce only incremental advances. Let’s see whether concentrating on more recent results gives a better predictor of future records. (a) Use the data in Table 2 (page 176) to complete the table of winning pole vault heights shown in the margin. (Note that we are using x=0 to correspond to the year 1972, where this restricted data set begins.) (b) Find the regression line for the data in part ‚(a). (c) Plot the data and the regression line on the same axes. Does the regression line seem to provide a good model for the data? (d) What does the regression line predict as the winning pole vault height for the 2012 Olympics? Compare this predicted value to the actual 2012 winning height of 5.97 m, as described on page 177. Has this new regression line provided a better prediction than the line in Example 2?

The owner of Original Italian Pizza restaurant chain wants to understand which variable most strongly influences the sales of his specialty deep-dish pizza. He has gathered data on the monthly sales of deep-dish pizzas at his restaurants and observations on other potentially relevant variables for each of several outlets in central Indiana. These data are provided in the file P10_04.xlsx. Estimate a simple linear regression equation between the quantity sold (Y) and each of the following candidates for the best explanatory variable: average price of deep-dish pizzas (X1), monthly advertising expenditures (X2), and disposable income per household in the areas surrounding the outlets (X3). Round your answers for intercept coefficients to the nearest whole number and slope coefficients to two decimal places, if necessary. If your answer is negative number, enter "minus" sign.

The table presents data on the taste test of 38 brands of pinot noir wine [data were first reported in an article by Kwan, Kowalski, and Skogenboe in the Journal Agricultural and Food Chemistry (1979, Vol. 27), the response variable is y = quality, and we want to find the "best" regression equation that relates quality to the other five parameters
Given a generic data set (x,y) with a linear regression. How do you determine if the y(dependent) will be less/greater than a certain value at a decided value of x?
The Life Insurance Company is attempting to model the weight, Y (in pounds), of a random sample of n=92 randomly selected adults using height, X1 (in inches), and gender, I2 (0 = Male 1=Female). In addition, as part of the research objective, we also wish to determine if the influence of height (X1) on weight (Y) depends on gender (I2) and vice versa. Write out the general regression equation for this model, based on the research objectives and information provided. Using the general equation from part A, write out the specific regression equation for a female. Using the general equation from part A, write out the specific regression equation for a male. If it was found that the influence of height on weight did NOT depend on gender, how would this change the equation given in part A of this problem? Rewrite the general equation from part A here.

If the R-squared for a regression model relating the outcome y to an explanatory variable x is 0.9. This implies that there is a positive linear relationship between y and x. True or false?
Suppose that researchers are interested in determining the bi-annual salary of statisticians of different levels using their years of experience and their education level (M = bachelors, P = doctorate). They fit the following model to a dataset that includes these variables and, after performing the proper steps of multiple linear regression, the following multiple linear regression model is obtained: yˆ = 42308 + 323x1 + 213x2 + 301(x1*x2) where the variables are as follows: yˆ = predicted bi−annual salary in dollars, x1 = number of years of experiencex2= {1 if the education level is a doctorate 0 if the education level is a bachelors What is the predicted bi-annual starting salary of an employee with a doctorate degree? (Someone with no work experience). $ What is the predicted bi-annual starting salary of an employee with a bachelor’s degree? (Someone with no work experience). $
