Engineering Probability and Inference Homework 5

1. In an article “Reactions on Painted Steel Under the Influence of Sodium Chloride, and Combinations Thereof”, measurements were taken of the Sodium Chloride deposition rate and steel weight loss.

1. Find the least-squares regression line relating the steel weight loss to the sodium chloride deposition rate.
2. Do the data provide sufficient evidence to indicate that β₁ is not 0? Use a significance level of 0.05.
3. Find a 95% confidence interval for β₁.
4.  Find a 95% prediction interval for the amount of steel weight loss when the sodium chloride deposition rate is 50.
5.  Find the correlation coefficient for this data.
6. Do the data provide sufficient evidence to show there is a correlation between sodium chloride deposition and steel weight loss? Use a significance level of 0.05.
7. Find the proportion of the variability in steel weight loss that is explained by the linear relationship with sodium chloride deposition rate (ie the coefficient of determination).

2.  A political scientist wished to examine the relationship between voter image of a candidate and distance (in miles) between the residences of the voter and the candidate.

Calculate Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient.

3. Suppose we want to predict job performance of Chevy mechanics based on mechanical aptitude test scores and test scores from personality test that measures conscientiousness. Use the data below:

1. Set up the three normal equations needed to find the multiple regression model. Solve for the betas and give the multiple regression equation.
2. Using the data given below, complete the ANOVA table for this data.

3. What is the coefficient of determination for this data and what does it mean?
