Textbook Question
Chapter 15.3, Problem 17E
In part (d) of exercise 9, data contained in the DATAfile named PGADrivingDist (PGA Tour website, November 1, 2012) was used to develop an estimated regression equation to predict the average number of yards per drive given the ball speed and the launch angle.
- a. Does the estimated regression equation provide a good fit to the data? Explain.
- b. In part (b) of exercise 9, an estimated regression equation was developed using only ball speed to predict the average number of yards per drive. Compare the fit obtained using just ball speed to the fit obtained using ball speed and the launch angle.
