A mixture of sucrose and water was heated on a hot plate, and the temperature (in °C) was recorded each minute for 20 minutes by the three thermocouples.
a. Compute the least-squares line for estimating the temperature as a function of time, using T1 as the value for temperature.
b. Compute the least-squares line for estimating the temperature as a function of time, using T2 as the value for temperature.
c. Compute the least-squares line for estimating the temperature as a function of time, using T3 as the value for temperature.
d. It is desired to compute a single line to estimate temperature as a function of time. One person suggests averaging the three slope estimates to obtain a single slope estimate and averaging the three intercept estimates to obtain a single intercept estimate. Find the equation of the line that results from this method.
e. Someone else suggests averaging the three temperature measurements at each time to obtain = (T1 + T2 + T3)/3. Compute the least-squares line using as the value for temperature.
f. Are the results of parts (d) and (e) different?
