An electric utility is interested in developing a model

Chapter 11, Problem 89E

(choose chapter or problem)

An electric utility is interested in developing a model relating peak-hour demand (y  in kilowatts) to total monthly energy usage during the month (x, in kilowatt hours). Data for 50 residential customers are shown in the Table E11-12.

Draw a scatter diagram of y versus x.Fit the simple linear regression model.

Test for significance of regression using  \(\alpha=0.05\). Plot the residuals versus \(\hat{\mathrm{y}}_{\mathrm{i}}\)  and comment on the underlying regression assumptions. Specifically, does it seem that the equality of variance assumption is satisfied? Find a simple linear  regression model using \(\sqrt{y}\) as the response. Does this transformation on  y  stabilize the inequality of variance problem noted in part  (d)?
