Find the value of the linear correlation coefficient r.
2. For a sample of eight bears, researchers measured the distances around the bears' chests and weighed the bears. Calculator was used to find that the value of the linear correlation coefficient is
r equals=0.963
What proportion of the variation in weight can be explained by the linear relationship between weight and chest size?
a. What proportion of the variation in weight can be explained by the linear relationship between weight and chest size?
3. Assume that you have paired values consisting of heights (in inches) and weights (in lb) from 40 randomly selected men. The linear correlation coefficient r is
0.559.
Find the value of the coefficient of determination. What practical information does the coefficient of determinationprovide?
4.
The data show the bug chirps per minute at different temperatures. Find the regression equation, letting the first variable be the independent (x) variable. Find the best predicted temperature for a time when a bug is chirping at the rate of 3000 chirps per minute. Use a significance level of 0.05. What is wrong with this predicted value?
