Chapter 1, Problem 23(choose chapter or problem)
The table shows (lifetime) peptic ulcer rates (per 100 population) for various family incomes as reported by the National Health Interview Survey. Income Ulcer rate (per 100 population) $4,000 14.1 $6,000 13.0 $8,000 13.4 $12,000 12.5 $16,000 12.0 $20,000 12.4 $30,000 10.5 $45,000 9.4 $60,000 8.2 (a) Make a scatter plot of these data and decide whether a linear model is appropriate. (b) Find and graph a linear model using the first and last data points. (c) Find and graph the least squares regression line. (d) Use the linear model in part (c) to estimate the ulcer rate for an income of $25,000. (e) According to the model, how likely is someone with an income of $80,000 to suffer from peptic ulcers?
