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 standard 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 you can reasonably apply the conditional mean and predicted value t-interval procedures to the data. If so, then also do parts
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 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 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 inter. val that you obtained in part (c) and the prediction interval that you obtained in part (e).
14.99 U.S. Presidents. The data from Exercise 14.35 for the ages at inauguration and of death of the presidents of the United States are on the WeissStats site. Specified value of the predictor variable: 53 years.
To find and interpret a confidence interval, at the specified confidence level for the slope of the population regression line that relates the response variables to the predictor variable.
14.25 Plant Emissions. Plants emit gases that trigger the ripening of fruit, attract pollinators, and cue other physiological responses. N. Agelopolous et al. examined factors that affect the emission of volatile compounds by the potato plant Solanum tuberosum and published their findings in the paper "Factors Affecting Volatile Emissions of Intact Potato Plants, Solanum tuberosum: Variability of Quantities and Stability of Ratios" (Journal of Chemical Ecology, Vol. 26(2), pp. 497-511). The volatile compounds analyzed were hydrocarbons used by other plants and animals. Following are data on plant weight , in grams, and quantity of volatile compounds emitted , in hundreds of nanograms, for 11 potato plants.
Suppose that and are two variables of a population with a predictor variable and a response variable.
a. The distribution of all possible values of the response variable corresponding to a particular value of the predictor variable is called a distribution of the response variable.
b. State the four assumptions for regression inferences.
