The total amount of consumer credit has been increasing steadily in recent years. The following table gives the total outstanding consumer credit. Answer part a. through e.
Year |2003 |2004 |2005 |2006 |2007
Consumer credit (in billions of dollars.) |2219.5 |2350.8 |2415.0 |2517.9 |2595.1
a. Find an equation for the least squares line, letting x equal the number of years since 2001.
b. Use part a to find, at approximately what rate is the consumer credit growing per year?
c. Use the result from part a to predict the amount of consumer credit in the year 2016.
d. If this trend continues linearly, in what year will the total debt first exceed $4000 billion?
e. Find and interpret the correlation coefficient.
from above:
a)
from above :Yhat=2052.34+91.83x
b)
rate with the consumer credit growing per year =91.83 billions of dollars /Year
c)
predicted value=2052.34+91.83*15=3429.79
d)
here 4000 =2052.34+91.83x
x=21.20
in year terms it is ~ 2001+21.2~ 2023.2 ~ 2024
hence in year 2024 the total debt first exceed $4000 billion
e)
correlation coefficient r= | Sxy/(√Sxx*Syy) = | 0.995 |
this tells us that there is a strong and posiitive correlation between increasing number of years from 2001 and Consumer credit

Supp Problems, Question 12.62 The table below shows the shipments (in millions of dollars) of consumer durables and nondurables in Canada. Is there a linear relationship between the shipments of durables and nondurables? In other words, if we know the value of nondurables shipped in any one year, can we predict the value of durables during that year? (Hint: Make the value of nondurables the independent variable.) According to the model, if at any given year the nondurables shipment is...
