In a study, researchers monitored variables thought to be related to the abundance of white shrimp. One variable the researchers thought might be related to abundance is the amount of oxygen in the water. The relationship between

The yields were the smallest when the number of seeds per square foot was either very small or very large. The data in the table show various numbers of seeds planted per square foot and yields (in pounds per square foot) for a sample of fields. A 2-column table with 15 rows. Column 1 is labeled number of seeds (per square foot) with entries 28, 75, 30, 43, 71, 35, 40, 59, 66, 79, 85, 81, 16, 33, 16.

- Life insurance companies are keenly interested in predicting how long their customers are likely to live, because this will determine their premiums and ultimately their profitability. An Australian life insurance company is interested in the relationship, if any, between the age at death of their male customers and that of the customer’s father. Data are collected on a random sample of 100 of their male customers who have recently died. The customer’s age at death was plotted against that of their father and a linear regression model applied. Relevant output is shown below. Say how you know from the output that there actually is a significant linear relationship between a male customer’s age at death and his father’s age at death. State the value of the coefficient of Father’s Age (Death) and interpret this value in the context of the problem at hand.State the value of the coefficient of determination in the model and interpret this value in the context of the situation.arrow_forwardThe datasetBody.xlsgives the percent of weight made up of body fat for 100 men as well as other variables such as Age, Weight (lb), Height (in), and circumference (cm) measurements for the Neck, Chest, Abdomen, Ankle, Biceps, and Wrist. We are interested in predicting body fat based on abdomen circumference. Find the equation of the regression line relating to body fat and abdomen circumference. Make a scatter-plot with a regression line. What body fat percent does the line predict for a person with an abdomen circumference of 110 cm? One of the men in the study had an abdomen circumference of 92.4 cm and a body fat of 22.5 percent. Find the residual that corresponds to this observation.

- Consumers are often interested in the fuel efficiency of the vehicles they choose to buy, so much so that they will research the various models they consider buying. Fuel efficiency can depend on a variety of variables. In this analysis, there are 73 automobiles that are popular with consumers. A regression analysis has been performed; the dependent variable is CityMPG (EPA miles per gallon in city driving), and independent variables are Length (vehicle length in inches), Width (vehicle width in inches), Weight (vehicle weight in pounds), and ManTran (1 if manual shift transmission, 0 otherwise). The level of significance is 0.05. Use the following MegaStat output to answer questions about this regression analysis. a. State the regression equation. b. How would CityMPG be affected if the width of a vehicle increased by an inch? c. Estimate the CityMPG for a vehicle with a length of 190 inches, a width of 75 inches, a weight of 4100 pounds, and a manual. Round your answer to the nearest…arrow_forwardBody Fat.

To facilitate this task, a staff analyst for the service regresses the number of complaints lodged against an employee last year on the hourly wage of the employee for the year. The analyst ran a simple linear regression in SPSS. The results are shown below. The current minimum wage is $5.15. If an employee earns the minimum wage, how many complaints can that employee expect to receive? Is the regression coefficient statistically significant? How can you tell?arrow_forward
