Question

Please make sure your final answers are correct, thanks!

Mist (airborne droplets or aerosols) is generated when metal-removing fluids are used in machining operations to cool and lubricate the tool and workpiece. Mist generation is a concern to OSHA, which has recently lowered substantially the workplace standard. An article gave the accompanying data on x = fluid-flow velocity for a 5% soluble oil (cm/sec) and y = the extent of mist droplets having diameters smaller than 10 µm (mg/m3):

(a) The investigators performed a simple linear regression analysis to relate the two variables. Does a scatter plot of the data support this strategy?


Calculate the test statistic and determine the P-value. (Round your test statistic to two decimal places and your P-value to three decimal places.)



State the conclusion in the problem context.


(d) Estimate the true average change in mist associated with a 1 cm/sec increase in velocity, and do so in a way that conveys information about precision and reliability. (Calculate a 95% CI. Round your answers to six decimal places.)

r sq=0.874=

87.4% variation in mist can be attributed to the simple linear regression relationship between velocity and mist

solUTIONC:

H0: 1 = 0.0006667

Ha: 1 0.000666

t=5.88

p=0.002

REJECT HO as p<0.05

Reject H0. There is sufficient evidence that with an increase from 100 to 1000, the true average increase in y is less than 0.6.
