- The model developed from sample data that has the form of Yhat = bo +bjX is known as the multiple regression model with two predictor variables. (True or False) O True O Falsearrow_forwardAssume we have data demonstrating a strong linear link between the amount of fertilizer applied to certain plants and their yield. Which is the independent variable in this research question?arrow_forwardWe have data on Lung Capacity of persons and we wish to build a multiple linear regression model that predicts Lung Capacity based on the predictors Age and Smoking Status. Age is a numeric variable whereas Smoke is a categorical variable (0 if non-smoker, 1 if smoker). Here is the partial result from STATISTICA. b* Std.Err. of b* Std.Err. N=725 of b Intercept Age Smoke 0.835543 -0.075120 1.085725 0.555396 0.182989 0.014378 0.021631 0.021631 -0.648588 0.186761 Which of the following statements is absolutely false? A. The expected lung capacity of a smoker is expected to be 0.648588 lower than that of a non-smoker. B. The predictor variables Age and Smoker both contribute significantly to the model. C. For every one year that a person gets older, the lung capacity is expected to increase by 0.555396 units, holding smoker status constant. D. For every one unit increase in smoker status, lung capacity is expected to decrease by 0.648588 units, holding age constant.arrow_forward
- 4b) The data shows a systolic and a diastolic blood pressure of certain patients. Find the linear regression equation, using the first variable x (systolic) as the independent variable. Find the best predicted diastolic blood pressure for a patient with a systolic blood pressure (y) reading of 140. What is the correlation coefficient, r? Using a significance level of a = 0.05, is there a significant linear relationship between systolic and diastolic blood pressure?

Data collected on the sweetness index of an orange juice sample and amount of water-soluble pectin for 24 production runs at a juice manufacturing plant are shown in the accompanying table. Suppose a manufacturer wants to use simple linear regression to predict the sweetness (y) from the amount of pectin (x). Find and interpret the coefficient of determination, r2, and the coefficient of correlation, r. Find and interpret the coefficient of determination, r2. Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer box within your choice. (Round to three decimal places as needed.) A. The coefficient of determination, r2, is enter your response here. Sample variations in the amount of water-soluble pectin explain 100r2% of the sample variation in the sweetness index using the least squares line. B.

Based from the table, what is the equation of the multiple linear regression? (Round off up to two decimal places. Market Price = 0.07 - 0.40*weight + 1.51*length + 1.41*width + 0.80*age Market Price = - 0.40*weight + 1.51*length + 1.41*width + 0.80*age Market Price = 0.07 + 0.40*weight + 1.51*length + 1.41*width + 0.80*age Market Price = 0.07 - 0.40 + weight + 1.51 + length + 1.41 + width + 0.80 + agearrow_forwardFind the fitted regression line for these data.arrow_forward
- Q1) Interpret the following regression line y = 10.50 – 0.18xarrow_forwardThe least-squares regression equation is y=620.6x+16,624 where y is the median income and x is the percentage of 25 years and older with at least a bachelor's degree in the region.
