Yes, because the correlation is strong, so the predicted…
Brain size Does your IQ depend on the size of yourbrain? A group of female college students took a test thatmeasured their verbal IQs and also underwent an MRI
scan to measure the size of their brains (in 1000s of pix-els). The scatterplot and regression analysis are shown,
and the assumptions for inference were satisfied.Dependent variable is: IQ_VerbalR-squared = 6.5% s = 21.5291 df = 18Variable Coefficient SE(Coeff)Intercept 24.1835 76.38Size 0.098842 0.0884a) Test an appropriate hypothesis about the associationbetween brain size and IQ.b) State your conclusion about the strength of thisassociation.
A real estate builder wishes to determine how house size (House) is influenced by family income (Income) and family size (Size). House size is measured in meter square and income is measured in IDR millions. The builder randomly selected 50 families and ran the multiple regression. Partial Microsoft Excel output is provided below:
Which of the independent variables in the model are significant at the 5% level?
Formulate the hypothesis and explain the answer.
How far can you rely upon this model? Or, what is the percentage variation in House
explained by the model?
What is the predicted house size (in hundreds of square feet) for an individual earning
an annual income of IDR 400 million and having a family size of 4?

- Olympic 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.

- Togetherness Are good grades in high school associ-ated with family togetherness? A simple random sample of 142 high-school students was asked how many mealsper week their families ate together. Their responses produced a mean of 3.78 meals per week, with a stand-ard deviation of 2.2. Researchers then matched these responses against the students’ grade point averages. Thescatterplot appeared to be reasonably linear, so they went ahead with the regression analysis, seen below. No appar-ent pattern emerged in the residuals plot.
