1. Scatter Diagram: Click Chart Wizard-XY Scatter.

 

2. Simple Linear Regression

(a) Regression line Slope, b1- Click Paste Function-Statistical-Slope

 

(b) Regression line Intercept, b0- Click Paste Function-Statistical-Intercept

 

(c) Regression- Click Tools-Data Analysis-Regression If Data Analysis does not appear, then click Tools-Add-Ins and click the top two boxes, Analysis Toolpak and Analysis Toolpak-VBA.

 

 

<####) Trend for Regression: Click Paste Function-Statistical-Trend

 

(e) Trend line for Regression: Click Chart Wizard-XY Scatter

 

(f) Forecast: Click Paste Function-Statistical-Forecast

 

3. Standard Error: Click Tools-Data Analysis-Regression (look at the Standard Error in the first two blocks of numbers)

Problem: What is the relationship between the number of punts and the number of points scored in data gathered from 5 football games?

 

4. t* and p-values and Hypothesis testing: Click Tools-Data Analysis-Regression (look at t Stat and P-value in last block of numbers)

Ho: b1 => 0

Ha: b1 < 0

a = 0.10

 

5. Confidence Interval for b1: Click Tools-Data Analysis-Regression (look at last group of numbers)

 

6. Coefficient of Determination: Click Tools-Data Analysis-Regression (look at first two groups of numbers). Also click Paste Function-Statistical-RSQ. (see below spreadsheet).

 

 

(a) Coefficient of Determinations using Paste Function: Click Paste Function-Statistical-RSQ

§ Two Tail Hypothesis Test on the Slope of Regression Line, b1 §

 1.  SS(y - yhat)² = SSE = SSy - [SCPxy]² / SSx

(a)  SCPxy = [Sxy - (Sx)(Sy) / n])

(b)  SSx = [Sx²- (Sx)² / n]

(c)  SSy = [Sy²- (Sy)² / n]

 

2.  b1 = D y / D x

= [Sxy - (Sx)(Sy) / n] / [Sx²- (Sx)² / n]

= SCPxy / SSx

 

3.  bo = ybar - b1(xbar)

 (a) xbar = Sx / n

(b) ybar = Sy / n

 

4.  Yhat = bo + b1[x]

 

5.  Y =  bo +  b1[X] + e

 

6.  s² =  s²e(hat) = estimate of  s²e = SSE / [n- 2 ] = MSE

s = Ös² = Ö(SSE / [n - 2]) = ÖMSE

 

7.  t* = [b1 - b1] / Sb1  = [b1 - b1] / [ s / ÖSSx ]

Sb1  = s / ÖSSx

 

8.  Two Tail Hypothesis Test on the Slope of the Regression Line, b1

Ho: b1= 0

Ha: b1 ¹ 0

Reject Ho if |t*| > t a / 2,(n - 2)

FTR(Support) Ho if |t*| £ t a / 2,(n - 2)

 

9.  One Tail Hypothesis Test (Right) on the Slope of the Regression Line, b1

Ho: b1 £ 0

Ha: b1 > 0

Reject Ho if t* > t a, (n - 2)

FTR(Support) Ho if t* £ t a, (n - 2)

 

10.  One Tail Hypothesis Test (Left) on the Slope of the Regression Line, b1

Ho: b1  ³ 0

Ha: b1 < 0

Reject Ho if t* < - t a, (n - 2)

FTR(Support) Ho if t* ³ - t a, (n - 2)

 

11.  CI for b1 =  b1 ± [t a / 2,(n - 2)]Sb1

12.  t* = r / Ö[(1 - r²) / (n - 2)]

 

13.  SSy = SSR + SSE

 

14.  r² = SSR / SSy

= 1 - SSE / SSy

= [SCPxy] 2 / (SSx)( SSy)

= (correlation coefficient)2 = (r)2

 

15.  SSy = S( y - ybar)² = Sy² - (Sy)² / n

SSR = S(yhat - ybar )² = (SCPxy)² / [SSx]

SSE = S(y - yhat )² = SSy - [SCPxy]²/SSx
