Which of the following is the regression equation for this data?

• Price^ = 87.3180 - 19.4(Area)

• Price^ = -19.4 + 0.1297(Area)

• Area^ = -19.4 + 0.1297(Price)

• Price^ = 0.1297 - 19.4(Area)

Which of these is the best interpretation of the number 0.1297?

• For each additional square foot of area, the price is predicted to increase by about $0.1297

• A house which has 0 square feet is predicted to cost about $0.1297

• For each additional square foot, the price of the house is predicted to increase about $12.97.

• For each additional square foot of area, the price of the house is predicted to increase 129.70.

Which of these is the best interpretation of the number 87.3180?

• The average distance between the price of a house and the mean price of all of the houses is about $87,318.

• Predictions of price based on area using this regression model will be off by about $87,318 on average.

• The sum of the squared deviations for each house is about $87,318.

• There were 87.318 houses in the sample.

A health researcher wishes to show that running can help reduce weight. x is the total running time per week (in minutes) and y is the amount of weight loss (in kg). From the regression line given, estimate the amount of weight loss if a person ran for four hours in a week, correct to 2 significant figures.

_____________________ is the use of a regression line for prediction outside the interval of x values used to obtain the line.

A residual...

• the difference between the actual value of y and the value of y predicted by the regression line

• actual y - predicted y

• the difference between the actual value of x and the value of x predicted by the regression line
