Question
Bridges covered There is a relationship between the age
of a bridge in Tompkins County, New York, and its con-
dition as found by inspection. Below is a graph of data.
Two of bridges are considerably older than the rest. The
oldest covered bridge in daily use in New York State was
built in 1853 and was recently judged to have a condition
of 4.523. Another bridge with a rating of 5.4 was built in
1865. Also below is the regression analysis for this rela-
tionship using all 196 bridges.
a) If we use this regression to predict the condition of the
oldest bridge, what would its residual be?
We removed the 1853 and 1865 bridges from the analysis
and here are the results:
Dependent variable is Condition
R@squared = 46.55, s = 0.7354
Variable Coefficient
Constant -40.7546
Year 0.02343
b) How were these two old bridges affecting the
regression?
c) The 1853 bridge was extensively restored in 1972.
Does that better explain its condition?
