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?
Suppose the athletic director at a university would like to develop a regression model to predict the point differential for games played by the men's basketball team. A point differential is the difference between the final points scored by two competing teams. A positive differential is a win, and a negative differential is a loss. For a random sample of games, the point differential was calculated, along with the number of assists, rebounds, turnovers, and personal fouls. Use the data in the accompanying table attached below to complete parts a through e below. Assume a = 0.05. a) Using technology, construct a regression model using all three independent variables. y = __ + (_)x1 + (_)x2 + (_)x3 + (_)x4 b) Test the significance of each independent variable using a= 0.10. c) interpret the p-value for each independent variable. d) Construxt a 90% confidence interval for the regression coefficients for each independent variable and interpret the meaning. e) Using the results from…
A group of scientists are interested in finding out whether the days of rainfall during the dry season could predict the magnitude of butterfly migration in the local area during wet season. Every year for twenty years, they count the total days of rainfall during the dry season preceding the migration and measure the number of butterflies migrating in the following wet season. Which type of statistical test should they use to analyze their data? (pearson's r correlation OR, simple regression equation)
suppose that you want to conduct a study on the relationship between women's shoe sizes and their height, and you have collected samples of female undergraduates at your university. The mean height of women in your sample is 64 inches, with a standard deviation of 2 inches. The mean shoe size is 8, with a standard deviation of 1. The correlation between the shoe size and height in your sample is .05. What is the least squares estimate of the slope parameter in your regression model?
