Question

Suppose we are interested in the relationship between the glucose concentration y (in g/L) and the fermentation time x (in days) for a particular blend of malt liquor. The glucose concentration was measured over n = 8 days and the following polynomial regression results of the data were reported.

yˆ = 84.482115.8750x +1.7679x 2 SSResid = 61.7679 SSTotal = 586.8750

d. Compute the value of the adjusted R2 statistic. Compare it to the value of R2 ?

e. Test the utility of this quadratic regression model, and show all six steps.

f. Test whether or not the x 2 term is important (useful) in the aforementioned model. [Note that sb2 = 0.2712 .]

Explanation / Answer

R^2 = 1 - 61.7679 / 586.8750 = 0.8947

R^2 adjusted = 0.5 * 0.8947 = 0.4474
