Short Answer

Graduation Rates. Refer to Problems 11 and 12. Perform a residual analysis to decide whether considering the assumptions for regression inferences to be met by the variables student-to-faculty ratio and graduation rate is reasonable.

Suppose that x and y are predictor and response variables, respectively, of a population. Consider the population that consists of all members of the original population that have a specified value of the predictor variable. The distribution, mean, and standard deviation of the response variable for this population are called the______, ______ and _____ respectively, corresponding to the specified value of the predictor variable.

U.S. Presidents. The data from Exercise $14.35$ for the ages at inauguration and of death for the presidents of the United States are on the Weiss Stats site.

For two variables satisfying Assumptions $1 - 3$ for regression inferences, the population regression equation is $y = 20 - 3.5 x$ . For samples of size $10$ and given values of the predictor variable, the distribution of slopes of all possible sample regression lines is a --------distribution with mean------- .

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 $(b) - (f)$ 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).

14.98 Birdies and Score. The data from Exercise 14.34 for number of birdies during a tournament and final score of $63$ women golfers are on the WeissStats site. Specified value of the predictor variable: $12$ birdies.

Use the data on the Weiss Stats site for estriol levels of pregnant women and birth weights of their children referred to in Exercise 14.42.
