Textbook Question
Chapter 14.9, Problem 50E
Consider the following data for two variables, x and y.
- a. Compute the standardized residuals for these data. Do the data include any outliers? Explain.
- b. Plot the standardized residuals against
- c. Develop a
scatter diagram for these data. Does the scatter diagram indicate any outliers in the data? In general, what implications does this finding have for simple linear regression?

Suppose there is a significant correlation between variables. describe 2 instances in which it might be inappropriate to use the linear regression model for prediction
The fish in my pond have mean lenth 14 inches with a standard deviation of 2 inches and mean weight 4 pounds with a standard deviation of .8 pounds. The correlation coefficient of length and weight is .4. If the length of a particular randomly selected fish is reported to be 15 inches, then what should we predict for the weight of that fish using simple linear regression?
The fish in my pond have mean length 10 inches with a standard deviation of 2 inches and mean weight 4 pounds with a standard deviation of .6 pounds. The correlation coefficient of length and weight is .9. If the length of a particular randomly selected fish is reported to be 15 inches, then what should we predict for the weight of that fish using simple linear regression?
