Identifying a Model and\({R^2}\)Different samples are collected, and each sample consists of IQ scores of 25 statistics students. Let x represent the standard deviation of the 25 IQ scores in a sample, and let y represent the variance of the 25 IQ scores in a sample. What formula best describes the relationship between x and y? Which of the five models describes this relationship? What should be the value of\({R^2}\)?

Short Answer

Expert verified

\(y = {x^2}\)is the equation that would best describe the relationship between x (standard deviation of the IQ scores) and y (variance of the IQ scores).

Out of the five non-linear models, the quadratic model is the most appropriate.

The value of \({R^2}\) should be approximately equal to 1.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

A regression equation is to be computed where the response variable is the variance of IQ scores of students, and the predictor variable is the standard deviation of the IQ scores.

The sample size is 25.

02

Relation of variance and standard deviation

If s is the sample standard deviation of a sample, then the sample variance is equal to\({s^2}\).

Mathematically, the sample variance of a variable is the square of the sample standard deviation.

Here, x denotes the standard deviation of the IQ scores, and y represents the variance of the IQ scores.

Thus, the following equation would best describe the relation between x and y:

\(y = {x^2}\)

03

Type of non-linear model

There are five types of non-linear models that are commonly used:

Linear Model with the general formula:\(y = a + b{x^2}\)

Logarithmic Model with the general formula:\(y = a + b\ln \left( x \right)\)

Power Model with the general formula:\(y = a{x^b}\)

Quadratic Model with the general formula:\(y = a{x^2} + bx + c\)

Exponential Model with the general formula: \(y = a{b^x}\)

For the given relation, the model's equation resembles the quadratic model \(y = a{x^2} + bx + c\) where a =1, b=0 and c=0. Thus, the most appropriate model for the given relation \(y = {x^2}\)is the quadratic model.

04

Value of \({R^2}\)

\({R^2}\)indicates how good the constructed model describes the relationship.

It lies between 0 and 1.

\({R^2}\)equal to 1 implies that the fitted model perfectly represents the relation between the given variables.

The actual relation between sample variance and sample standard deviation is that the sample variance is the square of the sample standard deviation.

Since the regression model\(y = {x^2}\)truly represents the actual relationship,the value of the\({R^2}\)should be equal to 1.

Cell Phones and Driving In the author鈥檚 home town of Madison, CT, there were 2733 police traffic stops in a recent year, and 7% of them were attributable to improper use of cell phones. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the sample is from a population in which fewer than 10% of police traffic stops are attributable to improper cell phone use.

Critical Thinking: Is the pain medicine Duragesic effective in reducing pain? Listed below are measures of pain intensity before and after using the drug Duragesic (fentanyl) (based on data from Janssen Pharmaceutical Products, L.P.). The data are listed in order by row, and corresponding measures are from the same subject before and after treatment. For example, the first subject had a measure of 1.2 before treatment and a measure of 0.4 after treatment. Each pair of measurements is from one subject, and the intensity of pain was measured using the standard visual analog score. A higher score corresponds to higher pain intensity.

Matched Pairs The methods of Section 9-3 can be used to test a claim about matched data. Identify the specific claim that the treatment is effective, then use the methods of Section 9-3 to test that claim.

Outlier Refer to the accompanying Minitab-generated scatterplot. a. Examine the pattern of all 10 points and subjectively determine whether there appears to be a correlation between x and y. b. After identifying the 10 pairs of coordinates corresponding to the 10 points, find the value of the correlation coefficient r and determine whether there is a linear correlation. c. Now remove the point with coordinates (10, 10) and repeat parts (a) and (b). d. What do you conclude about the possible effect from a single pair of values?

Testing for a Linear Correlation. In Exercises 13鈥28, construct a scatterplot, and find the value of the linear correlation coefficient r. Also find the P-value or the critical values of r from Table A-6. Use a significance level of A = 0.05. Determine whether there is sufficient evidence to support a claim of a linear correlation between the two variables. (Save your work because the same data sets will be used in Section 10-2 exercises.)

Manatees Listed below are numbers of registered pleasure boats in Florida (tens of thousands) and the numbers of manatee fatalities from encounters with boats in Florida for each of several recent years. The values are from Data Set 10 鈥淢anatee Deaths鈥 in Appendix B. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a linear correlation between numbers of registered pleasure boats and numbers of manatee boat fatalities?
