Let x be the age in years of a licensed automobile driver. Let y be the percentage of all fatal accidents (for a given age) due to speeding. For example, the first data pair indicates that 39% of all fatal accidents of 17-year-olds are due to speeding.

x 17 27 37 47 57 67 77
y 39 25 19 12 10 7 5

Complete parts (a) through (d), given

Σx = 329, Σy = 117, Σx2 = 18,263, Σy2 = 2825, Σxy = 4029, and r ≈ −0.942.

(a) Find x, and y. Then find the equation of the least-squares line  = a + bx. (Round your answers for x and y to two decimal places. Round your answers for a and b to three decimal places.)

x) =
y =
= +  x

(b) Find the value of the coefficient of determination r2. What percentage of the variation in y can be explained by the corresponding variation in x and the least-squares line? What percentage is unexplained? (Round your answer for r2 to three decimal places. Round your answers for the percentages to one decimal place.)

r2 =
explained     %
unexplained     %

c) Predict the percentage of all fatal accidents due to speeding for 35-year-olds. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
%

(d)Use a calculator to verify that

x = 63,

x2 = 1079,

y = 640,

y2 = 91,738,

and

xy = 9,677.



Compute r. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

Expert Solution

a)

c)

b) coefficient of determination = r^2
Here r ≈ −0.942
r^2 = (−0.942)^2 = 0.887364 ≈ 0.887
Coefficient of determination = 0.887

explained : 89%
unexplained : 100% - 89% = 11%

d) correlation formula given by follows

r = 0.950

Let x = age in years of a rural Quebec woman at the time of her first marriage. In the year 1941, the population variance of x was approximately σ2 = 5.1. Suppose a recent study of age at first marriage for a random sample of 51 women in rural Quebec gave a sample variance s2 = 2.8. Use a 5% level of significance to test the claim that the current variance is less than 5.1. Find a 90% confidence...
