Noise and Intelligibility Audiologists study the intelligibility of spoken sentences under different noise levels. Intelligibility, the MRT score, is measured as the percent of a spoken sentence that the listener can decipher at a cesl4ain noise level in decibels (dB). The table shows the results of one such test. (a) Make a scatter plot of the data. (b) Find and graph the regression line. (c) Find the correlation coefficient. Is a linear model appropriate? (d) Use the linear model in put (b) to estimate the intelligibility of a sentence at a 94-dB noise level.

Let x represent the year, with x=8 corresponding to 2008. (b) Use the linear regression capabilities of a graphing utility to find a linear model for the data. How does this model compare with the model obtained in part a? (c) Use the linear model to create a table of estimated values for y. Compare the estimated values with the actual data.
A Dubious Model of Oil Prices The following table shows the prices of oil in U.S. dollars per barrel, t years since 1990, One analysis involving additional data used a cubic equation to model this data. t Years since 1990 0 2 5 7 10 12 15 17 20 21 P Price, dollars per barrel 18.91 16.22 16.63 18.20 27.04 23.47 49.63 69.04 77.46 106.92 a. Use cubic regression to model these data. Round the regression parameters to four decimal places. b. Plot the data along with the cubic model. c. In the analysis mentioned above, the graph is expanded through 2020. Expand the viewing window to show the model from 1990 to 2020. d. What estimate does the model give for oil prices in 2015? e. The actual price of oil in December of 2015 was about 35 per barrel. What basic principle in the use of models would be violated in relying on the estimate in part d?
