Question

1) 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. All calculations will be done manually! a) Do a complete regression analysis, use alpha equal to 0.01 and table b) Find the standard error of the estimate c) Find the 95% prediction interval for pressure when the number of grams is 8 Grams (x) 4 6.5 5 5.5 8 10 9 8.2 10.5 Pressure (y) 73 79 83 82 84 92 88 86 95

Explanation / Answer

a)

b1= nE(xy)-ExEy/nE(x2)-(Ex2)

=9*5758.2-(66.70*762)/9*535.99-(66.70^2)

=2.66

b0=Ey-b1Ex/n

=762-(2.66*66.70)/9

=64.94

y=64.94+2.66*Grams

b)

SE=SSE/n-2

SE=56.67/7

SE=2.845

c)

y=64.94+2.66*8

y=64.94+21.28

y=86.22

Prediction interval formula: -

y+ta/2*SYX*1+hi

We get (78.4949, 93.974)
