For a sample of 74 monthly observations, the regression of the percentage return on gold (y) against the percentage change in the consumer price index (x) was estimated. The sample regression line, obtained through least squares, was y= -0.003 + 1.11x The estimated standard deviation of the slope of the population regression line was 2.31. Test the null hypothesis that the slope of the population regression line is 0 against the alternative that the slope is positive. (a=0.05)

Respiratory Rate Researchers have found that the 95 th percentile the value at which 95% of the data are at or below for respiratory rates in breath per minute during the first 3 years of infancy are given by y=101.82411-0.0125995x+0.00013401x2 for awake infants and y=101.72858-0.0139928x+0.00017646x2 for sleeping infants, where x is the age in months. Source: Pediatrics. a. What is the domain for each function? b. For each respiratory rate, is the rate decreasing or increasing over the first 3 years of life? Hint: Is the graph of the quadratic in the exponent opening upward or downward? Where is the vertex? c. Verify your answer to part b using a graphing calculator. d. For a 1- year-old infant in the 95 th percentile, how much higher is the walking respiratory rate then the sleeping respiratory rate? e. f.

suppose that you want to conduct a study on the relationship between women's shoe sizes and their height, and you have collected samples of female undergraduates at your university. The mean height of women in your sample is 64 inches, with a standard deviation of 2 inches. The mean shoe size is 8, with a standard deviation of 1. The correlation between the shoe size and height in your sample is .05. What is the least squares estimate of the slope parameter in your regression model?

Coastal State University is conducting a study regarding the possible relationship between the cumulative grade point average and the annual income of its recent graduates. A random sample of 147 Coastal State graduates from the last five years was selected, and it was found that the least-squares regression equation relating cumulative grade point average (denoted by x, on a 4-point scale) and annual income (denoted by y, in thousands of dollars) was y = 37.79+5.51x. The standard error of the slope of this least-squares regression line was approximately 2.10. Test for a significant linear relationship between grade point average and annual income for the recent graduates of Coastal State by doing a hypothesis test regarding the population slope B1. (Assume that the variable y follows a normal distribution for each value of x and that the other regression assumptions are satisfied.) Use the 0.05 level of significance, and perform a two-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. (If…
What is the differed annual expenditures of two families if their annual net incomes are differed by 2000? The computed regression line has a value of a=4.32 and b=2.12.
For a sample of 48 monthly observations the regression of the percentage return on an investment (y) against the percentage change in the consumer price index (x) was estimated. The sample regression line, obtained through least squares, is shown below. The estimated standard deviation of the slope of the population regression line was 1.8. Test the null hypothesis that the slope of the population regression line is 0 against the alternative that the slope is positive. Use a = 0.01. y = - 0.003 + 8.2x Find the t-statistic. %3D (Round to two decimal places as needed.) Find the exact p-value, using Excel. The p-value is (Round to two decimal places as needed.)

A software firm collected data for a sample of 30 computer programmers. A regression analysis can be used to determine if annual salary ($1000s) was related to the years of experience, the score on the firm's programmer aptitude test, and gender.

find the (a) explained variation, (b) unexplained variation, and (c) indicated prediction interval. In each case, there is sujficient evidence to support a claim of a linear correlation, so it is reasonable to use the regression equation when making predictions. Altitude and Temperature Listed below are altitudes (thousands of feet) and outside air temperatures (°F) recorded by the author during Delta Flight 1053 from New Orleans to Atlanta. For the prediction interval, use a 95% confidence level with the altitude of 6327 ft (or 6.327 thousand feet).
