The article "Earthmoving Productivity Estimation Using Linear Regression Techniques" (S.
Smith, Journal of Construction Engineering and Management, 1999:133–141) presents the
following linear model to predict earth-moving productivity (in m3 moved per hour):
Productivity = - 297.877 + 84.787x, + 36.806x, + 151.680x, – 0.081x, – 110.517x5
- 0.267.x, – 0.016x,x, +0.107.x,x5 + 0.0009448x,x, – 0.244x;x,
where
X1 = number of trucks
X2 = number of buckets per load
X3 = bucket volume, in m³
X4 = haul length, in m
X5 = match factor (ratio of hauling capacity to loading capacity)
X6 = truck travel time, in s
If the bucket volume increases by 1 m², while other independent variables are
unchanged, can you determine the change in the predicted productivity? If so,
determine it. If not, state what other information you would need to determine it.
b. If the haul length increases by 1 m, can you determine the change in the predicted
productivity? If so, determine it. If not, state what other…
For the snoring and heart disease data of Table 3.1 (Section 3.2.3) with snoring-levelscores (0, 2, 4, 5), the logistic regression ML fit is logit [Pˆ(Y = 1)] = −3.866 +0.397x. Interpret the effect of snoring on the odds of heart disease.
The data shown below are the initial weights and gains in weight (in grams) of female rats on a high protein diet from 24 to 84 days of age. The point of interest in these data is whether the gain in weight is related to (dependent on) the initial weight. If so, then feeding experiments on female rats can be made more precise by adjusting for differences in initial weights of the rats. Statistically test this with a regression analysis.

- The number of pounds of steam used per month by a chemical plant is thought to be related to the average ambient temperature (in F) for that month. The past year’s usage and temperatures are in the following table: Assuming that a simple linear regression model is appropriate, fit the regression model relating stem usage (y) to the average temperature (x). What is the estimate of Sigma2? What is the estimate of expected stem usage when the average temperature is 55 F? What change in mean stem usage is expected when the monthly average temperature changes by 1 F? Suppose that the monthly average temperature is 47 F.
