- Olympic Pole Vault The graph in Figure 7 indicates that in recent years the winning Olympic men’s pole vault height has fallen below the value predicted by the regression line in Example 2. 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_forwardLife Expectancy The following table shows the average life expectancy, in years, of a child born in the given year42 Life expectancy 2005 77.6 2007 78.1 2009 78.5 2011 78.7 2013 78.8 a.

The researcher selects a random sample of visitors to the online store and records the time spent browsing and the total amount of their purchase. The researcher will conduct a t-test for the slope of a regression line, where time spent browsing is the explanatory variable and total amount of purchase is the response variable. Which of the following would be an indication that the normality condition has been met? A sample size that is less than 30 A A histogram of the residuals that is centered at 0 and strongly right skewed B A dotplot of the residuals that is centered at 0, unimodal, and symmetric C A boxplot of the residuals that is centered at 100 and does not provide evidence of skewness or outliers D A scatterplot where total amount of purchase is the explanatory variable and time spent browsing…arrow_forward
- A business statistics professor would like to develop a regression model to predict the final exam scores for students based on their current GPAs, the number of hours they studied for the exam, the number of times they were absent during the semester, and their genders. The data for these variables are given in the accompanying table at the bottom of this page. a) Using Excel, construct a regression model using all of the independent variables. Create the dummy variable Gen, which equals 1 for a male and 0 for a female student ( this assignment is arbitrary) complete the regression equation for the model below, where y= Score, x1= GPA, x2= Hours, x3= Absenses, and x4= Gen. y= (__) + (__)x1 + (__)x2 + (__)x3 + (__)x4 b) Test the significance of the overall regression model using a= 0.10. c) interpret the meaning of the regression coefficient for the dummy variable. d) using the p-values, identify which independent variables are significant with a= 0.10. e) construct a regression…arrow_forwardGiven the partial results from a linear regression model below, a sample size of 504, and ɑ=0.05, What is the F-Statistic for the overall model?

The magazine rates the restaurants for food, decor, service, and the cost per person. Develop a regression model to predict the cost per person, based on a variable that represents the sum of the three ratings. The magazine has compiled the accompanying table of this summated ratings variable and the cost per person for 25 restaurants in a major city. Assuming a linear relationship, use the least-squares method to compute the regression coefficients b0 and b1.arrow_forward
- Multiple regression is sometimes used in litigation. In the case of Cargill, Inc. v. Hardin (1971), the prosecution charged that the cash price of wheat was manipulated in violation of the Commodity Exchange Act. In a statistical study conducted for this case, a multiple regression model was constructed to predict the cash price of wheat using three supply-and-demand explanatory variables: economic growth, population growth, and meat consumption. Data for 24 years were used to construct the regression equation, and a prediction for the suspect period was computed from this equation. Which of the independent variables is the most significant predictor of the cash price of wheat? a. Intercept b. Economic Growth c. Population Growth d. Meat Consumptionarrow_forwardMultiple regression is sometimes used in litigation. In the case of Cargill, Inc. v.

Data for 24 years were used to construct the regression equation, and a prediction for the suspect period was computed from this equation. The actual cash price of wheat under investigation in 1963 was $2.13. Based on the comparison of the correct predicted cash price calculated in the previous question and the actual cash price, what does the evidence suggest about Cargill, Inc.? a. Because the predicted price is relatively close to the actual price (within one cent), Cargill, Inc. probably did not artificially manipulate the price of wheat.…arrow_forward

Toward this goal, the analyst plans to use online trailer views as a predictor. For each of the 66 movies, the number of online trailer views from the release of the trailer through the Saturday before a movie opens and the opening weekend box office gross (in millions of dollars) are collected and stored in the accompanying table. Assuming a linear relationship, use the least-squares method to determine the regression coefficients b0 and b1. Interpret the meaning of the slope, b1, in this problem. Predict the mean opening weekend box office gross for a movie that had 80 million online trailer views. What insights can be obtained about predicting opening weekend box office gross from online trailer views?arrow_forwardLife insurance companies are keenly interested in predicting how long their customers are likely to live, because this will determine their premiums and ultimately their profitability. An Australian life insurance company is interested in the relationship, if any, between the age at death of their male customers and that of the customer’s father. Data are collected on a random sample of 100 of their male customers who have recently died. The customer’s age at death was plotted against that of their father and a linear regression model applied. Relevant output is shown below. Say how you know from the output that there actually is a significant linear relationship between a male customer’s age at death and his father’s age at death. State the value of the coefficient of Father’s Age (Death) and interpret this value in the context of the problem at hand.State the value of the coefficient of determination in the model and interpret this value in the context of the situation.arrow_forward
