Let x be the number of fouls more than (i.e., over and above) the opposing team. Let y be the percentage of times the team with the larger number of fouls wins the game.

x 0 4 5 6

y 49 43 33 26

Expert Solution

Solution:

Here given information is given Σx = 15, Σy = 151, Σx2 = 77, Σy2 = 6015, Σxy = 493, and r ≈ −0.906.

Using minitab statistical software we solve all the problem as below

a)scatter diagram

Comment : using scatter plot we say that there is negative correlation between x and y because if value value of x increase then value of y decreases .

b)

Here  Σx = 15, Σy = 151, Σx2 = 77, Σy2 = 6015, Σxy = 493, and r ≈ −0.906.

Question a) is correct.

c)

Regression line Equation of given data is

Y = 50.99 - 3.53 X

(d) Graph the least-squares line.

comment : Here all the data points are lies on the line or near to regression line it means that data is approximately normal distributed.

e)

coefficient of determination r2

R-sq = 82.15%
82.15 percentage of the variation in y can be explained by the corresponding variation in x and the least-squares line.

(f) If a team had x = 3 fouls over and above the opposing team, what does the least-squares equation forecast for y?

therefore put x= 3

Y = 50.99 - 3.53 X

Y = 50.99 - (3.53 * 3)

Y = 40.4
