Textbook Question
Chapter 14.2, Problem 14E
Using a global-positioning-system (GPS)-based navigator for your car, you enter a destination and the system will plot a route, give spoken turn-by-turn directions, and show your progress along the route. Today, even budget units include features previously available only on more expensive models. Consumer Reports conducted extensive tests of GPS-based navigators and developed an overall rating based on factors such as ease of use, driver information, display, and battery life. The following data show the price and rating for a sample of 20 GPS units with a 4.3-inch screen that Consumer Reports tested (Consumer Reports website, April 17, 2012).
- a. Develop a
scatter diagram with price as the independent variable. - b. What does the scatter diagram developed in part (a) indicate about the relationship between the two variables?
- c. Use the least squares method to develop the estimated regression equation.
- d. Predict the rating for a GPS system with a 4.3-inch screen that has a price of $200.
