Thank you. Part A) Based on Image 1, A researcher examined the relationship between weight (y axis) and height (x axis) among 475 male subjects. He graphed the relationship in the scatter diagram below. Weight is measured in pounds, and height in inches. The equation of the regression line is y = 3.86*x – 110.42. Is it reasonable to presume that if a male is 107 inches tall, his weight will be 302.6 pounds? a) Yesb) No Part B) Based on Image 2, A researcher examined the relationship between Variables X and Y among 150 male subjects, and he graphed a scatter plot as seen below. The correlation coefficient for all the 150 data points is about 0.5. Let K be the correlation coefficient for the data points with X values lying between 130 to 150. Which of the following statements is correct?a) K is less than 0.50.b) K is more than 0.50.c) None of the other options.arrow_forward
- Develop a scatterplot and explore the correlation between customer age and net sales by each type of customer (regular/promotion). Use the horizontal axis for the customer age to graph. Find the linear regression line that models the data by each type of customer. Round the rate of changes (slopes) to two decimal places and interpret them in terms of the relation between the change in age and the change in net sales. What can you conclude? Hint: Rate of Change = Vertical Change / Horizontal Change = Change in y / Change in xarrow_forwardUse the data in the table below to complete parts (a) through (d). 39 33 40 47 42 50 59 56 51 24 22 27 32 30 31 31 27 29 Click the icon to view details on how to construct and interpret residual plots.
