Consider the multiple regression model to investigate the relationship between the number of fishes (Y) per section of the stream and the following independent variables: dissolved oxygen (3 < oxy < 10, in mg/liter), maximum depth (1 < maxdepth < 8, in feet), and water temperature (5< temp < 20, in °C). The location of the stream was also considered (lowland and upland). Y-hat = 23.09 + 0.199*oxy + 0.3361*maxdepth +8.6730*temp + 3.8290* lowland. Which of the following is(are) TRUE about the estimated regression coefficient for location of the stream? 1. The location of the stream is a categorical variable, so it is represented by a dummy variable with upland stream as the reference variable. II. Holding other factors constant, the number of fishes in lowland is 3.8290 higher than upland streams. O A. I only O B. II only O C. Both I and II O D. Neither I nor II
A study of king penguins looked for a relationship between how deep the penguins dive to seek food and how long they stay underwater. For all but the shallowest dives, there is a linear relationship that is different for different penguins. The study report gives a scatterplot for one penguin titled " The relation of dive duration (DD) to depth (D)." Duration DD is measured in minutes and depth D is in meters. The report then says, " The regression equation for this bird is: DD = 2.3 + 0.0021 D. %3D (a) What is the slope of the regression line?. ANSWER minutes per meter. (b) According to the regression line, how long does a typical dive to a depth of 400 meters last? ANSWER minutes.

A regression between foot length (response variable in cm) and height (explanatory variable in inches) for 42 students resulted in the following regression equation: y = 10.4 + 0.21x If a student happened to be extraordinarily tall (say, 10ft, just for the fun of it) and had a foot size of 25 cm, how might this affect the slope of the regression line?
A local retail store compared their monthly sales of umbrellas with the amount of rainfall that occured during that month. They computed the following statistics: Rainfall (in) # of umbrellas mean = 4.64 mean = 34.2 SD = 1.17 SD = 13.2 r = 0.8 1. Find the equation for the regression line that predicts the monthly sales of umbrellas from monthly rainfall.
Biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) measures organic pollutants in water by measuring the amount of oxygen consumed by microorganisms that break down these compounds. BOD is hard to measure accurately. Total organic carbon (TOC) is easy to measure, so it is common to measure TOC and use regression to predict BOD. A typical regression equation for water entering a municipal treatment plant is BOD = -55.47 + 1.505 TOC Both BOD and TOC are measured in milligrams per liter of water. (a) What does the slope of this line say about the relationship between BOD and TOC? TOC rises (falls) by 1.505 mg/l for every 55.47 mg/l increase (decrease) in BOD BOD rises (falls) by 55.47 mg/l for every 1 mg/l increase (decrease) in TOC TOC rises (falls) by 1.505 mg/l for every 1 mg/l increase (decrease) in BOD BOD rises (falls) by 1.505 mg/l for every 1 mg/l increase (decrease) in TOC

Let price denote a price index for the goods sold by a restaurant, advert the amount spent on advertising, sales the sales for the restaurant, and consider the following two regressions First regression: sales = B1 + B2price + B3price? + B4advert + ßsadvert? + e, Second regression: sales = B1 + B2price + B3price? + e We estimate both regressions using a sample of 105 observations. The sum of square residuals (E ê) from the first regression equals 50, while the sum of square Li=1 residuals from the second regression equals 70. Suppose we are interested in testing the null hypothesis that expected sales do not depend on advertising. What is the F- statistic for this null hypothesis? Recall the F-statistic is given by ((SSER - SSEU)/J)/(SSEy/(n – K)). O a. -15 O b. 42 Oc. 21 O d. 20 O e. All other options are incorrect.
