Question
The last part of Sloan's report concerns the connection between cycling and the level of stress. To
investigate this link, Sloan first collected information about how many hours a week on average a
sample of Kiloton bicycle owners go cycling. She then invited them to a lab where their level of stress
was measured with a combination of tests that included heartrate monitoring and oxygen
consumption measurement. With this measurement, the stress level can be as high as 10 and as low
as 0. Sloan collected 80 responses. To understand her data better, she plotted the average hours of
cycling per week against the level of stress on a scatter plot shown Figure 1 below.
Sloan decides to fit a simple linear regression model to the data to investigate the relationship
between stress levels and average time spent cycling. The fitted regression line has been
superimposed on the scatter plot in Figure 8.1. Table 8.1 shows the selected outputs from the
regression analysis.

By looking at the output in Table 8.1, write down the equation of the fitted regression model, and
explain the meaning of the regression coefficients in context. Comment on the statistical significance
of the regression coefficients.
