Textbook Question
Chapter 11.3, Problem 21E
Butterfly wings: Do larger butterflies live longer? The wingspan (in millimeters) and the lifespan in the adult state (in days) were measured for 22 species of butterfly. Following are the results.
Source: Oikos Journal of Ecology 105:41–54
a. Compute the least-squares regression line for predicting lifespan (y) from wingspan (x).
b. Construct a 99% confidence interval for the slope.
c. Test H0: β1 = 0 versus H1: β1 < 0. Can you conclude that wingspan is useful in predicting lifespan? Use the α = 0.05 level of significance.
d. Do larger butterflies tend to live for a longer or shorter time than smaller butterflies? Explain.

The table below gives the age and bone density for five randomly selected women. Using this data, consider the equation of the regression line, bo + b₁x, for
predicting a woman's bone density based on her age. Keep in mind, the correlation coefficient may or may not be statistically significant for the data given. Remember, In
practice, it would not be appropriate to use the regression line to make a prediction if the correlation coefficient is not statistically significant.

A regression model to predict Y, the state burglary rate per 100,000 people, used the following four state predictors: X₁ = median age,
X₂ = number of bankruptcies per 1.000 population, X3 = federal expenditures per capita (a leading predictor), and X4 = high school
graduation percentage.

A study was made of movies in 2005. For each movie, the following were recorded: its budget (the amount it cost to make, in millions of dollars), its running time (from start to finish, in minutes), and the genre (drama, comedy, action, etc.). The scatterplot below shows the budget vs. running length for all movies. Two regression lines are shown on the scatterplot, for predicting budget from running length. The lower line is for movies of the "drama" genre, while the upper line is for movies of all other genres. Which of the statements below do you most strongly agree with?
(a) The difference in budget between dramas and other movies of the same length remains constant as the movies get longer.
(b) Dramas cost less to make than other movies of the same length, and that difference increases as the movies get longer.
(c) Dramas cost more to make than other movies of the same length, and that difference increases as the movies get longer.
(d) Dramas cost more to make than other movies of…
