Question

Runners are concerned about their form when racing. One measure of form is the stride rate, the number of steps taken per second. As running speed increases, the stride also Increase. In a study of 21 of the best American female runners, researchers measured the stride rate for different speeds. The following table gives the speeds (in feet and the mean stride rates for these runners (a) Plot the data with speed on the x axis and stride rate on the y axis. (Do this on paper. Your instructor may ask you to turn this in.) Does a straight line adequate these data? Yes No not enough information (b) Find the equation of the regression line of stride rate on speed. Draw this line on your plot. (Round your answers to four decimal places.) stride rate = + speed (c) For each of the speeds given, obtain the predicted value of the stride rate and the residual. Verify that the residuals add to zero. (Round your answers to three

Explanation / Answer

a)

yes , straight line is adequate

b)

stride^ = 1.49597 + 0.099414 *speed

= 1.4960 + 0.0994*speed

c)
