Chapter 13.4, Problem 43E

a.

To determine

Find the predicted value for surface area when cobalt is 2.6 and the temperature is 250.

Find its corresponding residual value.

b.

To determine

Whether it is reasonable to interpret that there will be a decrease in the surface area by 46 units if the cobalt content increases by 1 unit by holding other variables constant.

c.

To determine

Identify whether there is a linear relationship between response and the predictors.

d.

To determine

Test the significance of β3.

e.

To determine

Find the 95% confidence interval for the true response when temperature is 500 and the cobalt content is 2.

The article "Permeability, Diffusion and Solubility of Gases" (B. Flaconnèche, et al., Oil and Gas Science and Technology, 2001:262–278) reported on a study of the effect of temperature and other factors on gas transport coefficients in semicrystalline polymers. The permeability coefficient (in 10-6 cm³ (STP) / cm · s· MPa) of CO, was measured for extruded medium-density polyethylene at both 60°C and 61°C. The results are as follows: 60°C: 54 51 61 67 57 69 60 60 63 62 61°C: 58 60 66 66 68 61 60 Find a 95% confidence interval for the difference in the permeability coefficent between 60°C and 61°C.
5.1 Byers and Williams (Viscosities of Binary and Ternary Mixtures of Polyaromatic Hydrocarbons," Journal of Chemical and Engineering Data, 32, 349 – 354, 1987) studied the impact of temperature (the regressor) on the viscosity (the response) of toluene - tetralin blends. The following table gives the data for blends with a 0.4 molar fraction of toluene. + Temperature (°C) Viscosity (mPa·s) 1.133 24.9 35.0 0.9772 44.9 0.8532 55.1 0.7550 65.2 0.6723 75.2 0.6021 85.2 0.5420 95.2 0.5074 a. Plot a scatter diagram. Does it seem likely that a straight line model will be adequate?
The cetane number is a critical property in specifying the ignition quality of a fuel used in a diesel engine. Determination of this number for a biodiesel fuel is expensive and time- consuming. The article "Relating the Cetane Number of Biodiesel Fuels to Their Fatty Acid Composition: A Critical Study" (J. of Automobile Engr., 2009: 565–583) included the following data on x = iodine value (g) and y = cetane number for a sample of 15 biofuels The iodine value (x) is the amount of iodine necessary to saturate a sample of 100 g of oil. The article's authors fit the simple linear regression model to this data, so let' s does the same. 132.0 129.0 120.0 113.2 105.0 92.0 84.0 88.4 59.0 80.0 81.0 81.5 71.0 69.2 63.0 y 46.0 48.0 51.0 52.1 54.0 52.0 59.0 58.7 61.6 64.0 61.4 54.6 58.8 58.0 51.4 Construct a scatter plot for the data. Identify and state which is dependent and independent variable. What is the purpose of the scatter plot/diagram? 2. Fit a simple linear regression line/ equation to…
