A large city hospital conducted a study to investigate the relationship between the number of unauthorized days that employees are absent per year and the distance (miles) between home and work for the employees. A sample of 10 employees was selected and the following data were collected.
Develop a scatter diagram for these data. Does a linear relationship appear reasonable? Explain.
Develop the least squares estimated regression equation that relates the distance to work to the number of days absent.
Predict the number of days absent for an employee that lives 5 miles from the hospital.
A simple linear regression was performed on 25 observations. The least squares calculations are given as: SSgy = 204, SSxx= 100, SSyy = 516.

- The dataset below was collected from a survey to determine whether CFT development in the island can be used as a strategy for the sustainable management and utilization of the fishery and aquatic resources in small islands. It shows the monthly income (in thousand pesos) estimated by 200 randomly selected fishers in Guimaras according to the type of fishers (i.e., the income source of fishers is solely fishing or they have alternative/supplemental livelihood such as island hopping services, sari-sari store ownership, fish value adding and/or vending, souvenir selling, carpentry, as construction worker, farming and tour guiding) and their perceived benefit from CFT development in the island. From this dataset and using = 0.05, is there a significant difference in estimated monthly income due tofisher type? How about due to the CFT perceived benefit?

The teacher then measured their handspan in centimeters. The scatterplot displays the data the teacher collected along with the least-squares regression line. One student with a handspan of 23 cm grabbed 38 pretzels. This point is circled on the graph. What effect will the circled point have on the y-intercept? The y-intercept will not change with the addition of this point. The y-intercept will decrease because the point pulls the least-squares regression line toward it. The y-intercept will increase because the point pulls the least-squares regression line toward it. The y-intercept will increase because this point represents an extremely high number of pretzels grabbed with the dominant hand.arrow_forwardA pharmaceutical company has developed a drug that is expected to reduce hunger.
