The owner then used multiple regression analysis to predict gross revenue (y), in thousands of dollars, as a function of television advertising (x), in thousands of dolars, and newspaper
advertising (x,), in thousands of dollars. The estimated regression equation was
= 83.2 + 2.29x, + 1.30x.
(a) What is the gross revenue (in dollars) expected for a week when $5,000 is spent on television advertising (x5) and $1,500 is spent on newspaper advertising (, 1.5)? (Round
your answer to the nearest dollar.)

She randomly selects eleven 3-year old children from her practice, measures their heights and head circumference, and obtains the data shown below: height (inches) Head Circumference (inches) 27.75 17.5 24.5 17.1 25.5 17.1 26 17.3 25 16.9 25.75 17.6 26.5 17.3 27 17.5 26.75 17.3 26.75 17.5 27.5 17.5 a. If the pediatrician wants to use height to predict head circumference, determine which variable is the explanatory variable and which is response variable. b. Draw a scatter diagram of the data. c. Draw the best fit line on the scatter diagram. d. Does this scatter diagram show a positive, negative, or no relationship between a child’s height and the head circumference?arrow_forwardScenario: A pediatrician wants to determine the relation that may exist between a child’s height and head circumference.

Explain your answer. 2.Draw a scatter diagram of the data. Make sure your y axis and x axis are labeled. 3. Draw the best fit line on the scatter diagram. 4. Does a linear relation exist between height and head circumference? How would you describe the relationship and why?arrow_forwardPopulation growth The following data show thepercentage change in population for the 50 states andthe District of Columbia from 2000 to 2009.
