Question
Old Faithful, the most reliable geyser in Yellowstone National Park can shoot up to 8,400
gallons of boiling water to a height of about 150 feet. More than 1,000,000 eruptions have been
recorded.
There is evidence that eruptions of Old Faithful can best be predicted by knowing the duration of
the previous eruption. The results from regression analysis of Waiting Time (minutes) between
eruptions versus Duration (minutes) of the previous eruption for a random sample of 222
eruptions are shown below.

2. Calculate and interpret the coefficient of determination.
Coefficient of determination =
Interpretation:
3. What is the equation of the fitted line?
4. Fill in the blanks in the following interpretation of the slope of the fitted line.
As the duration of the previous eruption increases by
the waiting time between eruptions increases by about
minute(s),
minutes on average.
5. If you just witnessed an eruption that lasted 4 minutes, how long do you predict you'll have to
wait to see the next eruption?
Predicted waiting time =
minutes
6. So, you waited, and the next eruption came in 79 minutes. Is this an unusually long waiting time?
Unusually long waiting time:
Yes
No
