In an attempt to develop a model of wine quality as judged by wine experts, data was collected from 50 red wine variants of a certain type of wine. A multiple linear regression model to predict wine quality, measured on a scale from 0 (very bad) to 10 (excellent) was developed, based on alcohol content (%), X1, and the amount of chlorides, X2.
Perform a multiple regression analysis and determine the VIF for each independent variable in the model. Is there reason to suspect the existence of collinearity?
Determine the VIF for each independent variable in the model, with VIF1 and VIF2 being the VIF for X1 and X2, respectively.

The past year’s usage and temperatures are in the following table: Assuming that a simple linear regression model is appropriate, fit the regression model relating stem usage (y) to the average temperature (x). What is the estimate of Sigma2? What is the estimate of expected stem usage when the average temperature is 55 F? What change in mean stem usage is expected when the monthly average temperature changes by 1 F? Suppose that the monthly average temperature is 47 F.

- 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.
