The data show the chest size and weight of several bears. Find the regression equation, letting chest size be the independent (x) variable. Then find the best predicted weight of a bear with a chest size of 58 inches. Is the result close to the actual weight of 662 pounds? Use a significance level of 0.05. Chest size (Inches) 46 57 53 41 40 40 Weight (Pounds) 384 580 542 358 306 320

The relationship between sleep hours and overall happiness level on the next day was estimated as below in a linear format. (Happiness level is measured through a five-point scale: 1 = Extremely unhappy, 5 = Extremely happy) Overall happiness level = 0.27 * Sleep hours + 2.34 (The p-value for the coefficient of Sleep hours is 0.02.) Based on this equation, what is the expected happiness level of a person on a certain day, when he slept 7 hours the day before?

The multiple regression describes how the mean value of y is related to the xi independent variables. The parameters ?i are used to describe how the mean value of y changes for a one-unit increase in xi when the other variables are held constant. The given estimated regression equation follows where x1 is the high-school grade point average, x2 is the SAT mathematics score, and y is the final college grade point average. ŷ = −1.38 + 0.0232x1 + 0.00482x2 If the variable x2 is held constant, then only changes in x1 will impact the predicted values of ŷ. Since the coefficient of x1 is positive, for each one-unit increase of x1, the values of ŷ will increase by the value of ?1, where ?1 = . In context, for each one point increase of the high-school grade point average, the final college grade point average will increase by this amount when the SAT mathematics score does not change. If the variable x1 is held constant, then only changes in x2 will impact the predicted values of ŷ. Since the…
