Create a scatterplot for the data.

b.

To determine

Obtain an equation for the least-squares line.

c.

Obtain the residual for the observation (0.06, 0.01).

e.

To determine

Identify the potentially influential observation in the data set from the scatterplot in Part a.

Explain the reason the observation is potentially influential.

f.

The regional transit authority for a major metropolitan area wants to determine whether there is any relationship between the age of a bus and the annual maintenance cost. A sample of 10 buses resulted in the data in Worksheet 2. Worksheet 2 Age of a Bus (years) Maintenance Cost ($) 1 350   2 370   2 480   2 520   2 590   3 550   4 750   4 800   5 790   5 950     Develop a scatter diagram with the age of a bus as the independent variable. Develop the estimated regression equation that can be used to predict the maintenance cost given the age of a bus. Determine the coefficient of determination, and interpret its meaning in this problem. At the 0.05 level of significance, is there evidence of a linear relationship between the age of a bus and the annual maintenance cost.
The authors of a paper compared two different methods for measuring body fat percentage. One method uses ultrasound, and the other method uses X-ray technology. Body fat percentages using each of these methods for 16 athletes (a subset of the data given in a graph that appeared in the paper) are given in the accompanying table. You can assume that the 16 athletes who participated in this study are representative of the population of athletes. Athlete X-ray Ultrasound 1 5.00 4.25 2 15.00 11.75 3 9.25 9.00 4 12.00 11.75 5 17.25 17.00 6 29.50 27.50 7 5.50 6.50 8 6.00 6.75 9 8.00 8.75 10 15.50 16.50 11 9.25 9.50 12 11.00 12.00 13 12.00 12.25 14 14.00 15.50 15 17.00 18.00 16 18.00 18.25 Use these data to estimate the difference in mean body fat percentage measurement for the two methods.
