The following output (from MINITAB) is for the least-squares fit of the model ln y = 0 + 1 ln x + , where y represents the monthly production of a gas well and x represents the volume of fracture fluid pumped in. (A scatterplot of these data is presented in Figure 7.22.)

What is the equation of the least-squares line for predicting ln y from ln x? b. Predict the production of a well into which 2500 gal/ft of fluid have been pumped. c. Predict the production of a well into which 1600 gal/ft of fluid have been pumped. d. Find a 95% prediction interval for the production of a well into which 1600 gal/ft of fluid have been pumped. (Note: ln 1600 = 7.3778.)
STAT 2004 WEEK 14 REVIEW: T-test Use a T-test when sigma is unknown. Use cutoffs to test, not p-values. HYPOTHESIS TESTING RATIONALE Make an assumption. Is what you observed likely or unlikely Compare what you observe to what you expect. CHI-SQUARE TEST How different is what we observed from what we expected 2 For each category, calculate (observed−expected) . Add these values expected together for the chi-square value. The degrees of freedom for a chi-square value is the number of categories minus 1. o Look up the actual chi-square value on the table. o Is the ch
