Chapter 17, Problem 13P

An investigator has reported the data tabulated below. It is known that such data can be modeled by the following equation

x = e ( y b ) / a

where a and b are parameters. Use a transformation to linearize this equation and then employ linear regression to determine a and b. Based on your analysis predict y at x = 2.6 .

x 1 2 3 4 5
y 0.5 2 2.9 3.5 4

As an industrial engineer, you intend to use linear trend (or linear regression) method to solve a forecasting problem. You have decided to use the equation of y = m(x) + c to establish the relationship between the sales (y) and the related month (x). It is known that 8 consecutive months data (Jan to Aug) were used and they resulted to the following parameter values of m = 320 and c = 1017. Using the regression technique, estimate the percentage of sales improvement from December this year to June next year.
The following table presents the highway gasoline mileage performance and engine displacement for Audi vehicles for model year 2005. a) (5 Pts.) Fit simple linear model. Test for significance of the regression using alpha=0.05. Find the p-value for this test. What conclusions you can reach? b) (5 Pts.) Test Ho: P₁= -0.05 versus H₁: ₁
The following data have the form of exponential function y = a*Exp(x), where Exp(x) denotes the exponential operation of x. Find the nearest regression equation. In the answer, 1.00e0.5x represents 1.00*e^0.5x = 1.00*Exp(0.5x) Y: 0.4, 1, 4, 36 X: 0.2, 2, 4, 8 y = 1.00e0.06x All solutions are not correct O y = 0.35e0.58x O y = 1.35e1.5x
