ntomologists have discovered that a linear relationship exists between the rate of chirping of crickets of a certain species and the air temperature. When the temperature is 60°F, the crickets chirp at the rate of 145 chirps/min, and when the temperature is 90°F, they chirp at the rate of 295 chirps/min.
(a) Find an equation giving the relationship between the air temperature x and the number of chirps per min y of the crickets.(b) Use this function to determine the rate at which the crickets chirp when the temperature is 101°F.chirps/min
What is the equation of the normal line when the slope is -1/0 at point (2,8)?

(FEV1 stands for forced expiratory volume in one second.) Measurements were made on a group of children each year for two years. A linear model was fit to predict this year’s FEV1 as a function of last year’s FEV1 (in liters), the child’s gender (0 = Male, 1 = Female), the child’s height (in m), and the ambient atmospheric pressure (in mm). To try to improve the prediction of FEV1, additional independent variables are included in the model. These new variables are Weight (in kg), the product (interaction) of Height and Weight, and the ambient temperature (in °C). The following MINITAB output presents results of fitting the model FEV1 = β0 + β1 Last FEV1 + β2 Gender + β3 Height + β4 Weight + β5 Height · Weight + β6 Temperature + β7 Pressure + ε a) The F statistic is? b) How many degrees of freedom does the F statistic have? c) Find the P-value for the F statistic.
