Jensen Tire & Auto is in the process of deciding whether to purchase a maintenance contract for its new computer wheel alignment and balancing machine. Managers feel that maintenance expense should be related to usage, and they collected the following information on weekly usage (hours) and annual maintenance expense (in hundreds of dollars). Weekly Usage
(hours) Annual Maintenance
Expense ($100s)
13 17.0
10 22.0
20 30.0
28 37.0
32 47.0
17 30.5
24 32.5
31 39.0
40 51.5
38
40.0
(a) Use the data to develop an estimated regression equation that could be used to predict the annual maintenance expense for a given number of hours of weekly usage. What is the estimated regression model?
Let x represent the number of hours of weekly usage.
If required, round your answers to two decimal places. For subtractive or negative numbers use a minus sign even if there is a + sign before the blank. (Example: -300)
(b) Test whether each of the regression parameters β0 and β1 is equal to zero at a 0.05 level of significance. What are the correct interpretations of the estimated regression parameters? Are these interpretations reasonable?
(c) How much of the variation in the sample values of annual maintenance cost does the model you estimated in part (b) explain?
If required, round your answer to two decimal places.
(d) If the maintenance contract costs $3000 per year, would you recommend purchasing it? Explain.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The given data corresponds to the variables

Y:  Annual Maintenance  Expense ($100s)

X: Weekly Usage  (hours)

n= 10

∑X= 253; ∑X²= 7347; = ∑X/n= 253/10= 25.3 Hours

∑Y= 346.50; ∑Y²= 13010.75; = ∑Y/n= 346.50/10= 34.65 $100s

∑XY= 9668.5

a)

To estimate the slope and y-intercept you have to apply the following formulas:

^Y= a + bX

^Y= 10.53 + 0.95X

b)

H₀: β = 0

H₁: β ≠ 0

α:0.05

F= 47.62

p-value: 0.0001

To decide using the p-value you have to compare it against the level of significance:

If p-value ≤ α, reject the null hypothesis.

If p-value > α, do not reject the null hypothesis.

The decision is to reject the null hypothesis.

At a 5% significance level you can conclude that the average annual maintenance expense of the computer wheel alignment and balancing machine is modified when the weekly usage increases one hour.

b= 0.95 $100s/hours is the variation of the estimated average annual maintenance expense of the computer wheel alignment and balancing machine is modified when the weekly usage increases one hour.

a= 10.53 $ 100s is the value of the average annual maintenance expense of the computer wheel alignment and balancing machine when the weekly usage is zero.

c)

The value that determines the % of the variability of the dependent variable that is explained by the response variable is the coefficient of determination. You can calculate it manually using the formula:

This means that 86% of the variability of the annual maintenance expense of the computer wheel alignment and balancing machine is explained by the weekly usage under the estimated model ^Y= 10.53 + 0.95X

d)

Without usage, you'd expect the annual maintenance expense to be $1053

If used 100 hours weekly the expected maintenance expense will be 10.53+0.95*100= 105.53 $100s⇒ $10553

If used 1000 hours weekly the expected maintenance expense will be $96053

It is recommendable to purchase the contract only if the weekly usage of the computer is greater than 100 hours weekly.

the figures below are made out of circles, semicircles, quarter … find the area and the perimeter of each figure and give your answers as a completely simplified exact value in terms of π (no approximations). remember that we'll also have to cut whatever areas we get in half, since we're only dealing im pretty sure that is the right answer
