- 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

Terry's best friend, Heather, is the owner of Heather's Hondas. Like Terry, Heather sells used cars, and she too would like to try to predict the price of a used car based on the number of miles the car was driven by previous owners. When Heather creates a scatterplot, she notices a linear relationship between these two variables, and she obtains the following regression equation. Predicted price = 18855.05 – 0.101(miles) Heather also finds that r-squared is equal to 46.9%. This means the correlation (or r) between price and miles for Heather's sample of cars must be equal to what value?arrow_forward

One can see that lots of things, can cause the murder rate to increase or decrease.

The SAT score is, average combined total score participants did on the SAT exam. The unemployment rate is, "a measure of the prevalence of unemployment and it is calculated as a percentage by dividing the number of unemployed individuals by all individuals currently in the labor force." (Wikipedia) International migration per 1,000 is, the number of people who come into a state from other countries per 1,000 people who live in the state. After I run the regression I will look at the t scores and p values and I should hopefully conclude that international migration does not cause crime.
