1. Does adding a fuel additive help gasoline mileage in automobiles?
Use Linear Regression to analyze the following data:
Amount of STP fuel additive added to the gas tank (in ounces) = x Recorded gas mileage = y
1. Graph the Scatterplot Describe the direction, form and strength.
2. What is the regression line Correlation Coefficient value? What does this value indicate in relation to the data?
3. What is the Coefficient of Determination value? What does this value indicate in relation to the data?
4. Find the Least Squares Regression Line. In contents to the problem, interpret the meaning of ‘a’ and ‘b’.
5. Predict the gas mileage after adding 15 ounces of fuel additive.
6. Find the Residual for x = 10 ounces of STP.
7. Find the predicted gas mileage after adding 100 ounces. This is called EXTRAPOLATION when you make predictions for data outside your range. X 4 6 8 10 12 13 16 20 22 24 Y

you make predictions for data outside your range.

3. Finding the Least Squares Regression Model from summary statistics :

4. Temperature of the Ocean (degrees Fahrenheit)
Here are the summary statistics for the number of hurricanes that have formed per year over the past 100 years and for Temperature of the ocean each year for the same time period. We would like to use ocean temperature to predict number of hurricanes.
a.) Find the Least squares regression line AND interpret a and b in contexts to the problem..
