Solvent cement is used to join PVC joints. Researchers are interested in predicting the amount of time needed for the joint to set (measured in hours) as it is related to the temperature measured in degrees F for 4 to 8-inch diameter pieces. A random sample of PVC joints was taken and a linear regression model was found. Use the following output and the fact that R2 = 0.965 to answer the following questions. 1. Find the equation of the regression line. 2. Interpret the slope in the words of the problem. 3. Find the Coefficient of Determination and interpret in the words of the problem

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?

find the (a) explained variation, (b) unexplained variation, and (c) indicated prediction interval. In each case, there is sujficient evidence to support a claim of a linear correlation, so it is reasonable to use the regression equation when making predictions. Altitude and Temperature Listed below are altitudes (thousands of feet) and outside air temperatures (°F) recorded by the author during Delta Flight 1053 from New Orleans to Atlanta. For the prediction interval, use a 95% confidence level with the altitude of 6327 ft (or 6.327 thousand feet).
