Summary statistics are:
For a regression model of the form . Find the value of b (the slope) correct to two decimal places.
Now calculate a (the intercept) to calculate the regression model.
Interpreting the value of b, each additional visitor spends £ __________

The correlation coefficient between midterm and final scores in a large statistics class is r=0.6. A scatterplot of the two variables is football shaped.
A particular student has a midterm score that is 0.5 SDs below the average midterm score of all students.
Using regression, we would predict that the student's final score is _________ SDs _________ the average final score of all students and therefore at the _________ percentile of final scores of all students.
The least-squares regression equation is y=620.6x+16,624 where y is the median income and x is the percentage of 25 years and older with at least a bachelor's degree in the region. The scatter diagram indicates a linear relation between the two variables with a correlation coefficient of 0.7004.
Interpret the slope.

- What is the value of r2? Use the square root and your knowledge about the slope of the regression line to find the value of the correlation constant r. Based only on the value of r, do you think this line is useful for predicting life expectancy from the infant mortality rate? A new country called Arendelle has formed and has an infant mortality rate of 42 (deaths per 1000 live births). Use the equation of the regression line to predict the life expectancy for Arendelle. Round your answer to one decimal place. Another new country called Weselton has formed and has an infant mortality rate of 250 (deaths per 1000 live births). Recall some of the cautions we should take when considering correlation.

- A simple linear regression model was created to examine the relationship between the age of patients (i.e. the independent variable) and the patients' scores on a questionnaire that measures quality of life (i.e. the dependent variable). There were n=20 patients in the study, and some of the results of the regression are presented below: Estimated intercept = 42 Standard error of the intercept = 13.6 Estimated slope = -0.64 Standard error of the slope = 0.52 Based on these results, which of the following can we conclude, based on an alpha level of 0.05 for significance? Question 16 options: The intercept is not significantly different from 0, but the slope is significantly different than 0. Thus, we have mixed results and we cannot make a definitive statement about the significance of the association. There is a significant association, because the intercept is statistically significantly different than 0 (p<0.05).

The following is a partial result of computer output that was used on a sample of 20 individuals. Present the estimated regression equation and compute the coefficient of determination. Explain it. Use the t test to determine the significance of each independent variable. Let α = 0.05. (For each test, give the null and alternative hypotheses, test statistic, and conclusion.) Use the F test to determine whether or not the regression model is significant. Let α = 0.05. (For the test, give the null and alternative hypotheses, test statistic, and conclusion.)
