Bicycling World, a magazine devoted to cycling, reviews hundreds of bicycles throughout the year. Its Road-Race category contain

s reviews of bicycles used by riders primarily interested in racing. One of the most important factors in selecting a bicycle for racing is its weight. The following data show the weight (pounds) and price ($) for ten racing bicycles reviewed by the magazine:
Model
Weight (lbs)
Price ($)

HX 5000

A. Develop a scatter chart with weight as the independent variable. What does the scatter chart indicate about the relationship between the weight and price of these bicycles?
B. Use the data to develop an estimated regression equation that could be used to estimate the price for a bicycle, given its weight. What is the estimated regression model?
C. Test whether each of the regression parameters and is equal to zero at a 0.05 level of significance. What are the correct interpretations of the estimated regression parameters? Are these interpretations reasonable?
D. How much of the variation in the prices of the bicycles in the sample does the regression model you estimated in part b explain?
E. The manufacturers of the D’Onofrio Pro plan to introduce the 15-pound D’Onofrio Elite bicycle later this year. Use the regression model you estimated in part a to predict the price of the D’Ononfrio Elite.

Answer:

Check the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

S_{yy}=\sum y^{2}-\frac{\left (\sum y \right )^{2}}{n}=52120800

S_{xx}=\sum x^{2}-\frac{\left (\sum x \right )^{2}}{n}=21.74

S_{xy}=\sum xy-\frac{\left (\sum x \right )\left (\sum y \right )}{n}=-31284

Slope of the regression equation is

b_{1}=\frac{S_{xy}}{S_{xx}}=-1439.01

and intercept of the equation will be

b_{0}=\frac{1}{n}(\sum y - b_{1} \sum x)=28818.00

So the regression equation will be

y'=28818.00-1439.01x

C.

the attached images below comprise of the output of the regression analysis generated by excel:

Intercept:

Hypotheses are:

H_{0}:\beta_{0}=0,H_{a}:\beta_{0}\neq 0

t-value of intercept is 8.820

P-value is 0.0000

Since p-value is less than 0.05 so intercept is significant to the model.

Slope:

Hypotheses are:

H_{0}:\beta_{1}=0,H_{a}:\beta_{1}\neq 0

t-value of intercept is -7.12

P-value is 0.0000

Since p-value is less than 0.05 so slope is significant to the model.

D.

Since from regression output R-square is 0.864 so 86.4% of the variation  in the prices of the bicycles is accounted for by the weight of bicycles.

E.

For X= 15 estimated y value is

y'=28818.00-1439.01*15 = 7232.85

hence, required predicted price is $7232.85.

Michael estimated his mass as 8 kilograms. Is his estimate reasonable? Justify your answer.
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:  The answer is Yes.


Step-by-step explanation:  Given that Michael estimated his mass and found it to be 8 kilograms. It may sound awkward to us, but its true. Because when we measure our weight by the weight machine it gives us the product of our actual mass and the acceleration due to gravity.

From second law of motion, we have

Weight = mass × acceleration due to gravity.

That is, W = m × 9.8 m/sec².

The unit of mass is kilogram and 1 kg m/sec² = 1 Newton. Therefore, the unit of the weight we generally measure is Newton (N), not kilogram. Here is what we make mistake usually.

Thus, if Michael' mass is 8 kg, then his weight will be

W = 8 × 9.8 kg m/sec² = 78.4 N, which is normal weight of a person.

Thus, his estimation is perfectly OK.

Please Help. Lateena solved the equation below. Is her solution correct? Explain why or why not?
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

Not correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

x² - 6x - 7 = 0

The following equation can be solved correctly by factoring Thus,

x² - x + 7x - 7 = 0

x(x - 1) +7(x - 1) = 0

(x - 1)(x + 7) = 0

(x - 1) = 0

x - 1 = 0

x - 1 + 1 = 0 + 1

x = 1

Or

(x + 7) = 0

x + 7 = 0

x + 7 - 7 = 0 - 7

x = -7

Therefore, the solution would be x = 1 or x = -7

Lateena solution is therefore NOT CORRECT because she used a wrong method.
