Question
A diligent statistics student recorded the length of his
faithful #2 pencil as he worked away on his homework.
He discovered a strong linear relationship between the
number of hours that he worked and the length of his
pencil. Here is the regression analysis for these data.
Dependent variable: length (cm)
R2 = 92.3, R2
1adj2 = 89.5,
coeff se t ratio p value
constant 17.047 0.128 23.58 60.0001
time (hr) -1.914 0.047 35.28 60.0001
a) Write the equation of the least square regression
line.
b) Interpret R2
in this context.
c) Interpret the equation in this context.
d) This student’s girlfriend tried out his model on a
pencil she had used for 5 hours, and found a residual
of -0.88 cm. How long was her pencil at that time?
e) Should she have expected this model to describe the
rate for her pencils? Why or why not?
