Olympic Pole Vault The graph in Figure 7 indicates that in recent years the winning Olympic men’s pole vault height has fallen below the value predicted by the regression line in Example 2. This might have occurred because when the pole vault was a new event there was much room for improvement in vaulters’ performances, whereas now even the best training can produce only incremental advances. Let’s see whether concentrating on more recent results gives a better predictor of future records. (a) Use the data in Table 2 (page 176) to complete the table of winning pole vault heights shown in the margin. (Note that we are using x=0 to correspond to the year 1972, where this restricted data set begins.) (b) Find the regression line for the data in part ‚(a). (c) Plot the data and the regression line on the same axes. Does the regression line seem to provide a good model for the data? (d) What does the regression line predict as the winning pole vault height for the 2012 Olympics? Compare this predicted value to the actual 2012 winning height of 5.97 m, as described on page 177. Has this new regression line provided a better prediction than the line in Example 2?
Suppose that Y is normal and we have three explanatory unknowns which are also normal, and we have an independent random sample of 12 members of the population, where for each member, the value of Y as well as the values of the three explanatory unknowns were observed. The data is entered into a computer using linear regression software and the output summary tells us that R-square is 0.85, the linear model coefficient of the first explanatory unknown is 7 with standard error estimate 2.5, the coefficient for the second explanatory unknown is 11 with standard error 2, and the coefficient for the third explanatory unknown is 15 with standard error 4. The regression intercept is reported as 28. The sum of squares in regression (SSR) is reported as 85000 and the sum of squared errors (SSE) is 15000. From this information, what is SSE/SST?

The table below shows the parameters for four multiple linear regression bridge deterioration models. The full model has age as continuous independent variable, traffic (Average Daily Traffic (ADT)) and bridge design as categorical variables. The bridge design is expressed as codes “H’ or “HS” for a single-unit truck and a tractor pulling a semitrailer respectively. The numeric suffix represents the gross weight in tons for H truck or weight on the first two axle sets of the HS truck. For example, H_10 denotes a truck with a gross work of 10 tons. The table also contains the following model validation indicators: adjusted r-squared, Akaike’s Information Criteria (AIC), Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and Bayesian Information Criteria (BIC). Write the multiple regression equation for each of the four models and comment on the accuracy of prediction of bridge deterioration of each model.

Suppose that a regional express delivery service company wants to estimate the cost of shipping a package (Y) as a function of cargo type, where cargo type includes the following possibilities: fragile, semi-fragile, and durable. Costs for 15 randomly chosen packages of approximately the same weight and same distance shipped, but of different cargo types, are provided in the file P14_16.xlsx. a. Estimate a regression equation using the given sample data, and interpret the estimated regression coefficients. b. According to the estimated regression equation, which cargo type is the most costly to ship? Which cargo type is the least costly to ship? c. How well does the estimated equation fit the given sample data? How might the fit be improved? d. Given the estimated regression equation, predict the cost of shipping a package with semi-fragile cargo.
A trucking company considered a multiple regression model for relating the dependent variable of total daily travel time for one of its drivers (hours) to the predictors distance traveled (miles) and the number of deliveries of made. After taking a random sample, a multiple regression was performed and the output is given below. Interpret the slope of the deliveries variable. When deliveries increases by 0.805 units, time increases by 1 hour, holding all other variables constant. 2) We do not have enough information to say. 3) When deliveries increases by 1 unit, time decreases by 0.805 hours, holding all other variables constant. 4) When deliveries decreases by 1 unit, time increases by 0.805 hours, holding all other variables constant. 5) When deliveries increases by 1 unit, time increases by 0.805 hours, holding all other variables constant.

The concentration of dissolved solids and the turbidity of stream are measured simultaneously for five separately days selected days selected at random throughout a year. the data are as follows Do mg/L 400 550 700 800 500 Turbidity JTU 5 30 32 58 20 since turbidity is easier to measure, a regression equation may be used to predict the concentration of dissolved solids on the basis of known turbidity. Assume that the variance of dissolved solid concentrations is constant with turbidity.
