Textbook Question
Chapter 11.5, Problem 25E
Do the data in Exercise 11.19 present sufficient evidence to indicate that the number of errors is linearly related to the number of hours without sleep?
- a Give bounds on the attained significance level.
- b Applet Exercise Determine the exact p-value.
- c Based on your answers to parts (a) and/or (b), what would you conclude at the α = .05 level of significance?
- d Would you expect the relationship between y and x to be linear if x were varied over a wider
range , say, from x = 4 to x = 48? - e Give a 95% confidence interval for the slope. Provide a practical interpretation for this
interval estimate.
11.19 A study was conducted to determine the effects of sleep deprivation on subjects’ ability to solve simple problems. The amount of sleep deprivation varied over 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24 hours without sleep. A total of ten subjects participated in the study, two at each sleep-deprivation level. After his or her specified sleep-deprivation period, each subject was administered a set of simple addition problems, and the number of errors was recorded. The results shown in the following table were obtained.
- a Find the least-squares line appropriate to these data.
- b Plot the points and graph the least-squares line as a check on your calculations.
- c Calculate S2.

The Update to the Task Force Report on Blood Pressure Control in Children [12] reported the observed 90th per-centile of SBP in single years of age from age 1 to 17 based on prior studies. The data for boys of average height are given in Table 11.18. Suppose we seek a more efficient way to display the data and choose linear regression to accomplish this task.
