One of the relationships he investigated was maximal sprint speed in kilometers per hour and the ratio of metatarsal-to-femur length. A least-squares regression on the data he collected produces the equation ŷ = 37.67 + 33.18x where x is metatarsal-to-femur ratio and y is predicted maximal sprint speed in kilometers per hour. The standard error of the intercept is 5.69 and the standard error of the slope is 7.94. Construct a 96% confidence interval for the slope of the population regression line.

For both measures, smaller values indicate higher quality. The following computer output gives the results from predicting ERA by using WHIP in a least-squares regression for the 2017 baseball season. Variable DF Estimate SE T Intercept 1 -5.0 0.26 - 19.3 WHIP 1 6.8 0.14 47.4 Which of the following statements is the best interpretation of the value 6.8 shown in the output? ERA is predicted to increase by 6.8 units for each 1 unit increase of WHIP. WHIP is predicted to increase by 6.8 units for each 1 unit increase of ERA. For a pitcher with 0 units of WHIP, the ERA is predicted to be approximately 6.8 units. For a pitcher with 0 units of ERA, the WHIP is predicted to be approximately 6.8 units. Approximately 6.8% of the variability in ERA is due to its linear relationship with WHIP.arrow_forward
- A blood pressure measurement consists of two numbers: the systolic pressure, which is the maximum pressure taken when the heart is contracting, and the diastolic pressure, which is the minimum pressure taken at the beginning of the heartbeat. Blood pressures were measured, in millimeters, for a sample of 8 adults. The following table presents the results. Systolic Diastolic 124 84 106 84 102 77 113 77 118 66 117 87 130 74 115 70 The least-squares regression line y=b0+b1x=89.5234-0.1051x and Σ(x-x bar) squared =569.8750 are known for this data. Use the P-value method to test H0:β1=0 versus H1:β1<0. Can you conclude that systolic blood pressure is useful in predicting diastolic blood pressure? Use the α=0.10 level of significance and the TI-84 calculator. Compute the test statistic.
