Wrinkle recovery angle and tensile strength are the two most important character

Question

Wrinkle recovery angle and tensile strength are the two most important characteristics for evaluating the performance of crosslinked cotton fabric. An increase in the degree of crosslinking, as determined by ester carboxyl band absorbance, improves the wrinkle resistance of the fabric (at the expense of reducing mechanical strength). The accompanying data on x = absorbance and y-wrinkle resistance angle was read from a graph in the paper "Predicting the Performance of Durable Press Finished Cotton Fabric with Infrared Spectroscopy".t x 0.115 0.126 0.183 0.246 0.282 0.344 0.355 0.452 0.491 0.554 0.651 y 334 342 355 363 365 372 381 392 400 412 420 Here is regression output from Minitab Predictor Constant absorb Coef 321.878 156.711 SE Coef 2.483 6.464 129.64 24.24 0.000 0.000 S- 3 , 604 98 R-Sq 985% R-Sq (adj ) -98. 3% MS SOURCE Regression Residual Error Total DF 1 7639.0 7639.0 587.81 0.000 13.0 10 7756.

(Round your answer to two decimal places.) (c) What would be the estimate of the expected wrinkle resistance angle when absorbance is 0.340? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Explanation / Answer

a) yes a scatter plot of th data shows a strong , linear pattern and r2 =98.5%

b)

wrinkle resistance angle=321.878+156.711*0.340=375.16

c)estimate of expected value =376
