Extracting water from oil. Refer to the Journal of
Chapter 12, Problem 47E(choose chapter or problem)
Extracting water from oil. Refer to the Journal of Colloidand Interface Science study of water/oil mixtures, Exercise12.20 (p. 684). Recall that three of the seven variables used to predict voltage (y) were volume (\(x_1\)), salinity (\(x_2\)), and surfactant concentration (\(x_5\)). The model the researchers fit is
\(E(y)=\beta_{0}+\beta_{1} x_{1}+\beta_{2} x_{2}+\beta_{3} x_{5}+\beta_{4} x_{1} x_{2}+\beta_{5} x_{1} x_{5}\)
a. Note that the model includes interaction between disperse phase volume (\(x_1\)) and salinity (\(x_2\)) as well as interaction between disperse phase volume (\(x_1\)) and surfactant concentration (\(x_5\)). Discuss how these interaction terms affect the hypothetical relationship between y and \(x_1\). Draw a sketch to support your answer.
b. Fit the interaction model to the data. Does this model appear to fit the data better than the first-order modeling Exercise 12.20? Explain.
c. Interpret the \(\beta\) estimates of the interaction model.

ANSWER:Step 1 of 11
A first-order model for mean voltage (y)as a function of disperse phase volume (),
salinity () , temperature () , time delay () , surfactant concentration () , span: triton () and solid particles () is
Where are all quantitative variables that are not functions of other
independent variables and (i =1,2,3,4,5,6,7) represent the slope of the line relating
y to when all the other x values are held ?xed.
Given information is that three of the seven variables used to predict voltage ( y)were
volume() , salinity () , and surfactant concentration ().
The researcher model ?t is
