Question
Answer
1. To the nearest whole number, the best predicted diastolic pressure for a person with a systolic reading of 113 is 76.
2. P-value = 7.16
3. There is NOT correlation between Systolic and Diastolic blood pressure in the table shown above at a significance level of 0.05.
.
4. The regression line equation is y = - 3.51+ 0.71x
5. To the nearest whole number, the best predicted diastolic pressure for a person with a systolic reading of 134 is 92
Explanation / Answer
The statistical software output for regression is:
Simple linear regression results:
Dependent Variable: var4
Independent Variable: var3
var4 = -6.5132903 + 0.73069999 var3
Sample size: 12
R (correlation coefficient) = 0.83542069
R-sq = 0.69792773
Estimate of error standard deviation: 4.2643582
