Part I: Draw or print out a scatterplot of specific gravity versus pounds of chips; be sure to label each
Part I:
- Draw or print out a scatterplot of specific gravity versus pounds of chips; be sure to label each axis and make appropriate scales for the axis. Use specific gravity as the explanatory variable.
- Use your scatterplot and write complete sentences to answer to following: How is the amount of chips made associated with the specific gravity of the potatoes? (Include direction, form and strength)
- Use your calculator to compute \(r\) and \(r^{2}\). Then write sentences to explain what each means in the context of the situation. (Round to three decimal places)
- Use your calculator to find the regression line. Write the equation of this line and graph it on your scatterplot. (Round to three decimal places)
- What does the shape tell you in terms of the specific gravity and pounds of chips.
- Use the equation of the regression line to determine the number of pounds of chips that can be made if the specific gravity of a batch of potatoes is 1.0 and 1.09. How do these answers compare with the original data?
- There were two varieties of potatoes included in the test. How can you tell this by looking only at the graph?
- How does the model (the regression equation) confirm the hypothesis that the company will be more profitable if it buys potatoes with a higher specific gravity?
Part Two
Research Question: Is Life Expectancy at Birth associated with Physicians per 1000 people?
- Draw or print out a scatterplot of Life Expectancy at Birth versus Physicians per 1000 People; be sure to label each axis (with units). Us Physicians per 1000 people as the explanatory variable.
- Use your scatterplot and write complete sentences to answer the following: How is the Physicians per 1000 People associated with the Life Expectancy at Birth? (include direction, form, and strength)
- Use your calculator to compute \(r\) and \(r^{2}\) and then write sentences to explain what each means in the context of the situation.
- Use your calculator to find the regression line. Write an equation for this line and draw it on your scatterplot.
- What does the slope tell you in the context of the problem?
- Use the model to predict life expectancy with a 3 doctors per 1000 people in a country
