Question

The Federal Trade Commission measured the number of milligrams of tar and carbon monoxide (CO) per cigarette for all domestic cigarettes. Let x and y equal the measurements of tar and co, respectively, for 100 millimeter filtered and mentholated cigarettes. A sample of 12 brands yielded the following data: Find point estimates for beta_0, beta_1, and sigma_2 and find the least squares regression line for these data. Test the hypotheses H_0: beta_1 = 0 at the alpha = 0.05 Calculate 95% confidence interval for the parameter Find a 95% confidence interval for the mean of Y when x = 5, 15. Find a 95% prediction interval for a new Y when x = 5, 15. Calculate the correlation coefficient between x and y. Test the hypothesis that the population correlation coefficient rho between x and y is 0 vs. the alterative that rho notequalto 0.

Explanation / Answer

(a) b0 = 2.5753, b1 = 0.8191, Standard error = 1.988

The regression equation is y = 2.5753 + 0.8191x

(b) p- value for the slope coefficient is 0.0001 (< 0.05). So we conclude that 1 0

(c) The 95% confidence interval for 1 is [0.5242, 1.1139]

(d) For x = 5, the 95% confidence interval for mean y is [4.897, 8.444]

For x = 15, the 95% confidence interval for mean y is [12.718, 17.005]
