Chapter 11, Problem 96SE
A study was conducted to determine whether a linear relationship exists between the breaking strength y of wooden beams and the specific gravity x of the wood. Ten randomly selected beams of the same cross-sectional dimensions were stressed until they broke. The breaking strengths and the density of the wood are shown in the accompanying table for each of the ten beams.
- a Fit the model Y = β0 + β1 x + ε.
- b Test H0: β1 = 0 against the alternative hypothesis, Ha: β1 ≠ 0.
- c Estimate the
mean strength for beams with specific gravity .590, using a 90% confidence interval.

Arm circumferences (cm) and heights (cm) are measured from randomly selected adult females. The 146pairs of measurements yield x=34.69cm,
y=163.25cm, r=0.075, P-value=0.368, and y=157+0.1826x. Find the best predicted value of y (height) given an adult female with an arm circumference of 40.0cm. Let the predictor variable x be arm circumference and the response variable y be height. Use a 0.05 significance level.
The best predicted value is ____cm.
An experiment to compare the tension bond strength of polymer latex modified mortar (Portland cement mortar to which polymer latex emulsions have been added during mixing) to that of unmodified mortar resulted in x = 18.19 kgf/cm? for the
modified mortar (m = 42) and y = 16.85 kgf/cm? for the unmodified mortar (n = 30). Let u, and u, be the true average tension bond strengths for the modified and unmodified mortars, respectively. Assume that the bond strength distributions are both
normal.
Assuming that o, = 1.6 and o, = 1.3, test Hn: 4, - H, = 0 versus H: u, - u, > 0 at level 0.01.

Suppose the investigator decided to use a level 0.05 test and vwished B = 0.10 when u, - uz = 1. If m = 42, what value of n…
Suppose you fit the first-order model y = Po + B, x, + B2x2 + B3X3 + B,x4 + B5X5 + ɛ to n=28 data points and obtain SSE = 0.33 and R = 0.94. Complete
parts a and b.
a. Do the values of SSE and R suggest that the model provides a good fit to the data? Explain.
A.
Yes. Since R = 0.94 is close to 1, this indicates the model provides a good fit. Also, SSE = 0.33 is fairly small, which indicates the model
provides a good fit.
B. There is not enough information to decide.
No. Since R = 0.94 is close to 1, this indicates the model does not provide a good fit. Also, SSE = 0.33 is fairly small, which indicates the
model does not provide a good fit.
b. Is the model of any use in predicting
Test the null hypothesis Ho: B, = B2 = ... = B5 = 0 against the alternative hypothesis: At least
of the
