I Regression Analysis
Air Evap.
1. The following are measurements of air velocity and evaporation Vel. Coeff
coefficient of burning fuel in an engine: 20 0.18
60 0.37
Fit a line to these data by the method of least squares
100 0.35
Use it to estimate the evaporation coeff. of fuel when the air velocity is 190
140 0.78
cm/sec. 180 0.56
220 0.75
260 1.18
300 1.36
340 1.17
380 1.65
2. Engineers fabricating a new transmission type electron multiplier on a sheet , the structure of 50
sheets’ height (y) and width (x) are recorded. The summary statistics
a. Find the least squares line for predicting the height from width
b. Find the least squares line for predicting width from height
3. In reference to Ex. 1
b. Make a scatter plot after taking the natural logarithim of both variables
c. Calculate the correlation coefficient r for the data in both , in a and b
d. Comment on the appropriateness of r in each case
II. ANOVA
6. the internal bonding of three types of resins ED,MD and PF need to be compared. Five specimens
were prepared with each of the resins :
Resins Strength
ED 0.99 1.19 0.79 0.95 0.90
MD 1.11 1.53 1.37 1.24 1.42
PF 0.83 0.68 0.94 0.86 0.57
Perform the analysis of variance to test the 0.05 level of significance whether differences among the
sample means.
