A seafood-sales manager collected data on the maximum daily temperature, T, and the daily revenue from salmon sales, R, using sales receipts for 30 days selected at random. Using the data, the manager conducted a regression analysis and found the least-squares regression line to be Rˆ=126+2.37T. A hypothesis test was conducted to investigate whether there is a linear relationship between maximum daily temperature and the daily revenue from salmon sales. The standard error for the slope of the regression line is SEb1=0.65. Assuming the conditions for inference have been met, which of the following is closest to the value of the test statistic for the hypothesis test?

A researcher collected data on the cholesterol level, CC, and the age, AA, of 24 people selected at random. Using the data, the researcher calculated the least-squares regression line to be Cˆ=182+2.2AC^=182+2.2A and the standard error of the slope to be 0.38. If the conditions for inference are met, which of the following is closest to the value of the test statistic to test the hypotheses H0:β=0H0:β=0 versus Ha:β≠0Ha:β≠0 ?

A pediatrician wants to determine the relationship that exists between achild’s height, x, and head circumference, y. She randomly selects 11 children from her practice, measures their heights and head circumferences, and conducts the least-squares regression analysis with the simple linear model using StatCrunch. The output is given below: (a) Write down the equation of the least-squares regression line treating height as the explanatory variable and head circumference as the response variable. (b) Interpret the slope and y-intercept, if appropriate. (c) Use the regression equation to predict the head circumference of a child who is 25 inches tall. Assume that the regression model is applicable.(d) It is observed that one child who is 25 inches tall has a head circumference of 17.5 inches. Is the observed value above or below average among all children with heights of 25 inches?
Which of the multivariate regression parameters listed below would be best interpreted as: the predicted value on the dependent variable when all of the independent variables in the model are equal to zero. a b1 X1 R2
A box office analyst seeks to predict opening weekend box office gross for movies. Toward this goal, the analyst plans to use online trailer views as a predictor. For each of the 66 movies, the number of online trailer views from the release of the trailer through the Saturday before a movie opens and the opening weekend box office gross (in millions of dollars) are collected and stored in the accompanying table. Assuming a linear relationship, use the least-squares method to determine the regression coefficients b0 and b1. Interpret the meaning of the slope, b1, in this problem. Predict the mean opening weekend box office gross for a movie that had 80 million online trailer views. What insights can be obtained about predicting opening weekend box office gross from online trailer views?
An experiment was performed on a certain metal to determine if the strength is a function of heating time. Results based on 10 metal sheets are given below. ∑ X = 30 ∑ X 2 = 104 ∑ Y = 40 ∑ Y 2 = 178 ∑ XY = 134 Using the simple linear regression model, find the estimated y-intercept and slope and write the equation of the least squares regression line.

A year-long fitness center study sought to determine if there is a relationship between the amount of muscle mass gained y(kilograms) and the weekly time spent working out under the guidance of a trainer x(minutes). The resulting least-squares regression line for the study is y=2.04 + 0.12x A) predictions using this equation will be fairly good since about 95% of the variation in muscle mass can be explained by the linear relationship with time spent working out. B)Predictions using this equation will be faily good since about 90.25% of the variation in muscle mass can be explained by the linear relationship with time spent working out C)Predictions using this equation will be fairly poor since only about 95% of the variation in muscle mass can be explained by the linear relationship with time spent working out D) Predictions using this equation will be fairly poor since only about 90.25% of the variation in muscle mass can be explained by the linear relationship with time spent…
