The expected lung capacity of a smoker is expected to be 0.648588 lower than that of a non-smoker. B. The predictor variables Age and Smoker both contribute significantly to the model. C. For every one year that a person gets older, the lung capacity is expected to increase by 0.555396 units, holding smoker status constant. D. For every one unit increase in smoker status, lung capacity is expected to decrease by 0.648588 units, holding age constant.arrow_forward
- 4b) The data shows a systolic and a diastolic blood pressure of certain patients. Find the linear regression equation, using the first variable x (systolic) as the independent variable. Find the best predicted diastolic blood pressure for a patient with a systolic blood pressure (y) reading of 140. What is the correlation coefficient, r? Using a significance level of a = 0.05, is there a significant linear relationship between systolic and diastolic blood pressure?

Data collected on the sweetness index of an orange juice sample and amount of water-soluble pectin for 24 production runs at a juice manufacturing plant are shown in the accompanying table. Suppose a manufacturer wants to use simple linear regression to predict the sweetness (y) from the amount of pectin (x). Find and interpret the coefficient of determination, r2, and the coefficient of correlation, r. Find and interpret the coefficient of determination, r2. Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer box within your choice. (Round to three decimal places as needed.) A. The coefficient of determination, r2, is enter your response here. Sample variations in the amount of water-soluble pectin explain 100r2% of the sample variation in the sweetness index using the least squares line. B.
