For each exercise, decide at 10% significance level, whether the data provide sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis in favour of alternate hypothesis

Ha :pnot=0.

Short Answer

We don't reject Ha : pnot=0, and state that the variables are linearly correlated.

Step by step solution

01

Correlation Coefficient 

Sample correlation coefficient is calculated by : r=∑zxzy/(n-1) 

where zxn=(xn-mean) /standarddeviation, and same for zyn

Using excel and above formula concept,r=0.9325

02

Hypothesis Testing 

rnot=0for sample needs to be tested using hypothesis testing, to ensure that the population correlation parameterp (rho) is non zero.

t=r/(1-r2) /(n-2)0.9325/(1-0.9325)/(5-2)0.9325/0.0675/30.9325/0.02250.9325/0.15t=6.216

As t calculated value is greater than t value for 10%significance level ie 0.05each side, and p value =0.02is also lesser than p at the same significance level

So, we reject the null hypothesis H0 : p=0in favour of alternate hypothesis H1 : pnot=0. Hence, the variables are linearly correlated.

Body Fat. In the paper "Total Body Composition by Dual-Photon ( G153id) Absorptiometry" (American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, Vol.40,pp.834-839), R. Mazess et al. studied methods for quantifying body composition. Eighteen randomly selected adults were measured for percentage of body fat, using dual-photon absorptiometry. Each adult's age and percentage of body fat are shown on the WeissStats site.

a. Decide whether you can reasonably apply the regression t-test. If so, then also do part (b).

b. Decide, at the 5%significance level, whether the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the predictor variable is useful for predicting the response variable.

In Exercises 14.12-14.21, we repeat the data and provide the sample regression equations for Exercises 4.48 -4.57.

a. Determine the standand error of the estimate.

b. Construct a residual plot.

c. Construct a normal probability plot of the residuals.

In Exercises 14.98-14.108, use the technology of your choice to do the following tasks.
a. Decide whether your can reasonably apply the conditional mean and predicted value t-interval procedures to the data. If so, then also do parts (b)-(h).
b. Determine and interpret a point estimate for the conditional mean of the response variable corresponding to the specified value of the predictor variable.
c. Find and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the conditional mean of the response variable corresponding to the specified value of the predictor variable.
d. Determine and interpret the predicted value of the response variable corresponding to the specified value of the predictor variable.
e. Find and interpret a 95% prediction interval for the value of the response variable corresponding to the specified value of the predictor variable.
f. Compare and discuss the differences between the confidence interval that you obtained in part (c) and the prediction interval that you obtained in part (e).

14.101 Acreage and Value. The data from Exercise 14.37for lot size (in acres) and assessed value (in thousands of dollars) of a sample of homes in a particular area are on the WeissStats site. Specified value of the predictor variable: 2.5 acres.

Movie Grosses. Box Office Mojo collects and posts data on movie grosses. For a random sample of 50 movies, we obtained both the domestic (U.S.) and overseas grosses, in millions of dollars. The data are presented on the WeissStats site.

14.23 Corvette Prices. The Kelley Blue Book provides information on wholesale and retail prices of cars. Following are age and price data for 10 randomly selected Corvettes between 1 and 6 years old.

Here, xdenotes age, in years, and ydenotes price, in hundreds of dollars.
