Chapter 10.5, Problem 2BSC
Best Multiple Regression Equation For the regression equation given in Exercise 1, the P-value is 0.000 and the adjusted R2 value is 0.925. If we were to include an additional predictor variable of neck size (in.), the P-value becomes 0.000 and the adjusted R2 becomes 0.933. Given that the adjusted R2 value of 0.933 is larger than 0.925, is it better to use the regression equation with the three predictor variables of length, chest size, and neck size? Explain.

- Noise and Intelligibility Audiologists study the intelligibility of spoken sentences under different noise levels. Intelligibility, the MRT score, is measured as the percent of a spoken sentence that the listener can decipher at a cesl4ain noise level in decibels (dB). The table shows the results of one such test. (a) Make a scatter plot of the data. (b) Find and graph the regression line. (c) Find the correlation coefficient. Is a linear model appropriate?
