A substance used in biological and medical research is shipped
by airfreight to
users in cartons of 1,000 ampules. The data below involving 10
shipments,
were collected on the number of times the carton was transferred
from one
aircraft to another over the shipment route (X) and the number of
ampules
found to be broken upon arrival (Y).
i: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Xi: 1 0 2 0 3 1 0 1 2 0
Yi: 16 9 17 12 22 13 8 15 19 11
f. Because of changes in airline routes, shipments may have to
be
transferred more frequently than in the past. Estimate the
mean
breakage for the following numbers of transfers: X = 2, 4. Use
separate
99% confidence intervals and interpret your results.
g. The next shipment will entail two transfers. Obtain a 99%
prediction
interval for the number of broken ampules for this shipment.
Interpret
your prediction interval.
h. Conduct an F test to decide whether β1 is significant different
from 0;
use a level of significance of 0.05. State the hypotheses, decision
rule,
and conclusion.
i. Determine the coefficient of determination (R^2) and
correlation
coefficient (r). What proportion of the variation in Y is accounted
for
by introducing X into the regression model?
Use appropriate plot to investigate the type of relationship between the two variables. Report your view.
