Textbook Question
Chapter 14.9, Problem 14.55ACI
Price of natural gas. Refer to the annual data on natural gas price (Yt), Exercise 14.42 (p. 14-37). You fit the simple linear regression model, E (Yt) = β0 + β1t, to the data for the years 1997 to 2015 (t = l, 2, ... , 19).
a. Find and plot the regression residuals against t. Does the plot suggest the presence of autocorrelation? Explain.
b. Conduct the Durbin-Watson test (at α = .05) to test formally for the presence of positively autocorrelated regression errors.
c. Comment on the validity of the inference concerning model adequacy in light of the result of part b.

- 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_forwardConsider the following linear regression model that relates income per capita in thousand dollars of a country i (GDP P Ci), with its percentage of the population in the agricultural sector (P Ai): Model : GDP P Ci = β0 + β1P Ai + ui (a) Explain in words how to interpret parameters β0 and β1.
