Question

and 11.) 6. Protein and Diastolic Blood Pressure A study was conducted with vegetarians to see whether the number of grams of protein each ate per day was related to diastolic blood pressure. The data are given here. If there is a significant relationship, predict the diastolic pressure of a vegetarian who consumes 8 grams of protein per day.

Explanation / Answer

correlation

calculation procedure for correlation
sum of (x) = x = 66.7
sum of (y) = y = 762
sum of (x^2)= x^2 = 535.99
sum of (y^2)= y^2 = 64868
sum of (x*y)= x*y = 5758.2
to caluclate value of r( x,y) = covariance ( x,y ) / sd (x) * sd (y)
covariance ( x,y ) = [ x*y - N *(x/N) * (y/N) ]/n-1
= 5758.2 - [ 9 * (66.7/9) * (762/9) ]/9- 1
= 12.326
and now to calculate r( x,y) = 12.326/ (SQRT(1/9*5758.2-(1/9*66.7)^2) ) * ( SQRT(1/9*5758.2-(1/9*762)^2)
=12.326 / (2.152*6.254)
=0.916
value of correlation is =0.916
exists a positive releation between them

Line of Regression Y on X i.e Y = bo + b1 X

calculation procedure for regression

mean of X = X / n = 7.4111

mean of Y = Y / n = 84.6667

(Xi - Mean)^2 = 41.66886

(Yi - Mean)^2 = 352

(Xi-Mean)*(Yi-Mean) = 110.93333

b1 = (Xi-Mean)*(Yi-Mean) / (Xi - Mean)^2

= 110.93333 / 41.66886

= 2.66226

bo = Y / n - b1 * X / n

bo = 84.6667 - 2.66226*7.4111 = 64.93643

value of regression equation is, Y = bo + b1 X

Y'=64.93643+2.66226* X

to predict on who consumes 8 grams per day

Y'=64.93643+2.66226* 8 = 86.23451
