    Simple Linear Regression

    Learning Objectives

    1. Understand how regression analysis can be used to develop an equation that estimatesmathematically how two variables are related.

    2. Understand the differences between the regression model, the regression equation, and theestimated regression equation.

    3. Know how to fit an estimated regression equation to a set of sample data based upon the least-squares method.

    4. Be able to determine how good a fit is provided by the estimated regression equation and computethe sample correlation coefficient from the regression analysis output.

    5. Understand the assumptions necessary for statistical inference and be able to test for a significantrelationship.

    6. Know how to develop confidence interval estimates ofygiven a specific value ofxin both the caseof a mean value ofyand an individual value ofy.

    7. Learn how to use a residual plot to make a judgement as to the validity of the regressionassumptions, recognize outliers, and identify influential observations.

    8. Know the definition of the following terms:

    independent and dependent variablesimple linear regressionregression modelregression equation and estimated regression equationscatter diagramcoefficient of determinationstandard error of the estimateconfidence intervalprediction intervalresidual plotstandardized residual plotoutlierinfluential observation

    The standardized residuals are: -1.00, -.41, .01, -.48, .25, .65, -2.00, -2.16

    The last two observations in the data set appear to be outliers since the standardized residuals forthese observations are 2.00 and -2.16, respectively.

    .28, .24, .16, .14, .13, .14, .14, .76

    MINITAB identifies an observation as having high leverage if hi> 6/n; for these data, 6/n=6/8 = .75. Since the leverage for the observationx= 22,y= 19 is .76, MINITAB wouldidentify observation 8 as a high leverage point. Thus, we conclude that observation 8 is aninfluential observation.
