Use Data Set 7 found on my website for this question.
Consider two models: Big and Small. Both models are predicting Exam Tot.
Big uses four variables (Female?, Year, Time, and H Total) to predict Exam Tot.
Small uses two variables (Time and H Total) to predict Exam Tot.
Run a regression for each model. Which one is a better model?
Small is better, but it's arguable that Big is better
Clearly Big
Both are equally good / It's hard to tell.
Big is better, but it's arguable that Small is better
Clearly Small

This might have occurred because when the pole vault was a new event there was much room for improvement in vaulters’ performances, whereas now even the best training can produce only incremental advances. Let’s see whether concentrating on more recent results gives a better predictor of future records. (a) Use the data in Table 2 (page 176) to complete the table of winning pole vault heights shown in the margin. (Note that we are using x=0 to correspond to the year 1972, where this restricted data set begins.) (b) Find the regression line for the data in part ‚(a). (c) Plot the data and the regression line on the same axes. Does the regression line seem to provide a good model for the data? (d) What does the regression line predict as the winning pole vault height for the 2012 Olympics? Compare this predicted value to the actual 2012 winning height of 5.97 m, as described on page 177. Has this new regression line provided a better prediction than the line in Example 2?arrow_forwardCellular Phone Subscribers The table shows the numbers of cellular phone subscribers y in millions in the United States from 2008 through 2013.
