- 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 monthly premium quoted by an insurance company for a critical illness policy was collected from a sample of 6 adult male smokers at different age.

An Australian life insurance company is interested in the relationship, if any, between the age at death of their male customers and that of the customer’s father. Data are collected on a random sample of 100 of their male customers who have recently died. The customer’s age at death was plotted against that of their father and a linear regression model applied. Relevant output is shown below. Say how you know from the output that there actually is a significant linear relationship between a male customer’s age at death and his father’s age at death. State the value of the coefficient of Father’s Age (Death) and interpret this value in the context of the problem at hand.State the value of the coefficient of determination in the model and interpret this value in the context of the situation.Life insurance companies are keenly interested in predicting how long their customers are likely to live, because this will determine their premiums and ultimately their profitability.
