In some computer printouts, the least-squares equation is not given directly. Instead, the value of the constant a is given, and the coefficient b of the explanatory or predictor variable is displayed. Sometimes a is referred to as the constant, and sometimes as the intercept. Data from Climatology Report No. 77-3 of the Department of Atmospheric Science, Colorado State University, showed the following relationship between elevation (in thousands of feet) and average number of frost-free days per year in Colorado locations. A Minitab printout provides the following information. Predictor Constant Elevation Coef 315.00 -29.166 SE Coef 28.31 3.511 I 11.24 -8.79 P 0.002 0.003 S = 11.8603 R-Sq = 96.44 Notice that "Elevation" is listed under "Predictor." This means that elevation is the explanatory variable x. Its coefficient is the slope b. "Constant" refers to a in the equation ŷ = a + bx. (c) The printout gives the value of the…arrow_forward
- Please label each part SUBPARTarrow_forwardThe data shown was generated by suspending weights, whose mass is measured in kg, from a rubber band, which stretches by the amount shown, measured in meters. Find the least squares line for this data set and interpret the results. What is the meaning of the slope in the context of this problem? How much stretch does your model predict for a 4.20 kg weight?arrow_forwardThe x values in the accompanying table below represent the number of petrol pumps operated by seven different petrol stations. The y values represent the number of litres, that each of these petrol stations sell in a day.
