7a)
A researcher aims to assess the associative impact of coffee consumption on death rates from heart diseases. For this objective the researcher collects data from 10 countries and intends to use linear regression. The following table shows data on average per capita coffee consumption and heart disease rate in a random sample of 10 countries.
a) State which of the given variables is the outcome variable.
b) Provide a scatterplot for the objective of interest using R, and state if a linear regression model would be suitable for this data.
c) Perform the linear regression modeling using R. Provide the fitted model equation and interpret the intercept and slope in the given context.
Refer to Exercise 12.12. In the plot of the data, airport 20 had a much larger revenue than any of the other 21 airports.
Replot the three scatterplots with the data from airport 20 deleted. Does there appear to be any relationship among revenue and the two explanatory variables in this data set?
Fit a first-order regression model relating revenue to distance and population size. Comment on the quality of the fit of the model to the data. Is revenue related to distance from hub and population size once airport 20 is deleted from the data?
What conclusions can be inferred from parts (a) and (b) about the importance of plotting the data and not just running models through a software program?
12.12 A regional airline transfers passengers from small airports to a larger regional hub airport. The airline’s data analyst was assigned to estimate the revenue (in thousands of dollars) generated by each of the 22 small airports based on two variables: the distance from each airport (in…
