In an agricultural experiment, the effects of two fertilizers on the production of limes were measured. Nineteen randomly selected plots of land were treated with a brand new fertilizer, and 27 randomly selected plots were treated with an old fertlizer.

The sales manager of a large automotive parts distributor wants to estimate the total annual sales for each of the company’s regions. Three factors appear to be related to regional sales: the number of retail outlets in the region, the total personal income of the region, and the number of cars registered in the region. The following table shows the data for 10 regions that were gathered for last year sales.

There is a 54% chance that the regression line will be a good predictor for the percent of seeds that sprout based on the number of seeds produced. There is a large variation in the percent of seeds that sprout, but if you only look at plants that produce a fixed number of seeds, this variation on average is reduced by 54%. 54% of all plants produce seeds whose chance of sprouting is the average chance of sprouting. The equation of the linear regression line is: ˆyy^ = + xx (Please show your answers to…
