Double check that this is the correct regression model.
Do an exponential regression (Stat, Calc, #0)
Store the regression equation & save the residuals (StoreRegEq: VARS, Y-VARS, enter, enter, enter, enter)
Graph the residual plot (change the YList to RESID, use 2nd, Stat) show it with Zoom9.
What do you see? Remember what this looks like.
NOW double check, do a LINEAR REGRESSION (Stat, Calc, #8)
Store the regression equation & save the residuals (StoreRegEq: VARS, Y-VARS, enter, enter, enter, enter)
Observe the residual plot with zoom9.
1. Which regression seems to be better: linear or exponential?
2. How do you know based on the residual plots?
Be sure to explain your answer.
"_________________________, because the residual plot _______________________________________________"

Use the information from the exponential regression and create the Exponential Regression Equation, enter it below.
Use 'barrels' and 'year' for the variables,
identify the predicted variable with -hat and
round values to three places past the decimal.
No spaces.
Use the math keyboard to put an exponent into your equation.

One of the important factors in determining a car's Fuel Efficiency is its Weight.
Look at the relationship for 11 cars.
A linear regression was calculated and the regression equation stored.
Use both the scatterplot and the residual plot to answer the question below.
Do you think the linear model is appropriate for this data?
Use the residual plot to explain your decision, be sure to look at the residual plot from left to right.
I will grade this answer.

Using the same data, let's try a power model to look at the association between fuel efficiency and weight of the 11 cars.
The residual plot for the power regression is shown below.
Explain why the power regression model appears to be better than the linear model.

The following table shows the stopping distances in feet for a car tested 3 times at each of 5 speeds. We hope to create a model that predicts the stopping distance from the speed of the car.
Enter the data into L1 and L2.
NOTE: you will have three entries in L1 for 20, three for 30, three for 40, etc.
There will be a total of 15 entries so each distance is matched with a speed. Ask for help if you have questions.
Observe the scatterplot, then do a linear regression.
Record the Coefficient of Determination below.
