- Find the equation of the regression line for the following data set. x 1 2 3 y 0 3 4arrow_forwardOlympic Pole Vault The graph in Figure 7 indicates that in recent years the winning Olympic men’s pole vault height has fallen below the value predicted by the regression line in Example 2. This might have occurred because when the pole vault was a new event there was much room for improvement in vaulters’ performances, whereas now even the best training can produce only incremental advances. Let’s see whether concentrating on more recent results gives a better predictor of future records. (a) Use the data in Table 2 (page 176) to complete the table of winning pole vault heights shown in the margin. (Note that we are using x=0 to correspond to the year 1972, where this restricted data set begins.) (b) Find the regression line for the data in part ‚(a). (c) Plot the data and the regression line on the same axes. Does the regression line seem to provide a good model for the data? (d) What does the regression line predict as the winning pole vault height for the 2012 Olympics? Compare this predicted value to the actual 2012 winning height of 5.97 m, as described on page 177. Has this new regression line provided a better prediction than the line in Example 2?arrow_forwardWhat does the y -intercept on the graph of a logistic equation correspond to for a population modeled by that equation?arrow_forward
- Previous research showed that 15% percent of teenagers between the ages of 13 and 17 smoke. A study was conducted to examine the current proportion of US teenagers between the ages of 13 and 17 who smoke. A survey asked a random sample of 785 teenagers between the ages of 13 to 17 if they smoke. 71 of the surveyed teenagers responded that they smoke. The information above is for the question below.arrow_forwardB. What is the best predicted temperature for a time when a bug is chirping at the rate of 3000 chirps per minute? The best predicted temperature when a bug is chirping at 3000 chirps per minute is____°F. C. What is wrong with this predicted value? The first variable should have been the dependent variable. It is unrealistically high. The value 3000 is far outside of the range of observed values. It is only an approximation. An unrounded value would be considered accurate. Nothing is wrong with this value. It can be treated as an accurate prediction.arrow_forwardB.

This question is about logistic regression. The outcome variable is success (1=success, 0=failure), and we have two groups of observations: group A and group B. a. Assume that on average, the odds of success is x for group A members. What is the average probability of success (p) for group A? Please write down p as a function of x. Given an x, is there a unique p? b. Assume that on average, the odds ratio for success of group A over group B is 2. The average probability of success for group A is pA and that the average probability of success for group B is pg. Is the set of Paand pg unique? c. The logistic regression of success ~ group (link=logit) returns a coefficient estimate of -1.3863 for the dummy variable group (1=group A, 0=group B). Interpret this coefficient estimate.arrow_forward
