Suppose we create a regression model where height (in feet) is used to predict weight (in lbs). Then, we realize that, as scientists, we should use the metric system. The heights are converted to meters and the weights to kilograms, then we redo the analysis. What is the effect on the slope in regression model? (A) the sign of the slope will change (B) the magnitude of the slope will change (C) the sign and magnitude of the slope will both change (D) there will be no effect on the slope
Homework Answers
Weight = c + k * height
1 lbs = 0.454 Kg
1 foot = 0.305 meters
0.454 * weight = c + k * height * 0.305
New slope will be = k * 0.305 / 0.454 = 0.67 * k
Option-B) the magnitude of the slope will change is the correct answer.

Suppose that a researcher studying the weight of female college athletes wants to predict the weights based on height, measured in inches, and the percentage of body fat of an athlete. The researcher calculates the regression equation as (weight) 4.358 (height) 0.713 (percent body fat)-85.095. If a female athlete is 65 inches tall, has a 16 percentage of body fat, and a weight of 210.005. What is the residual? 1) -84.673 2) 0.422 3) We do...

Suppose that a researcher studying the weight of female college athletes wants to predict the weights based on height, measured in inches, and the percentage of body fat of an athlete. The researcher calculates the regression equation as (weight) = 4.582*(height) + 0.953*(percent body fat) - 80.689. If a female athlete is 68 inches tall and has a 18 percentage of body fat, what is her expected weight? Question 15 options: 1) We do not know the observations in the...
