Quiz Linear Regression

The document provides instructions and questions for a linear regression analysis of student exam score and attitude data. 10 students took a 20-item exam and their individual scores (independent variable x) and attitude towards the test (dependent variable y) were recorded. Students were asked to: 1) Plot the data points on a scatter plot. 2) Calculate the slope of the linear regression line to determine the change in attitude for each point increase in exam score. 3) Calculate the y-intercept of the linear regression line to predict attitude when exam score is 0. 4) Use the slope and intercept to write the equation of the estimated linear regression line.

General Instructions: Questions/Clarifications must be forwarded to the instructors only. Submission


must be an image of the manual computation done. Show your solutions. Do not forget to THINK.

Given the following sample data from the 20-item exam taken by 10 student of the QUAMETH class. The
independent variable (x) signifies the student’s individual score out of the possible 20 items test and the
dependent variable (y) is their attitude towards the test. The attitude is in percentage, the higher the
number the more positive attitude towards taking the exam.

b1 = ______________

What does the slope tells us?

4. Calculate the y-intercept (b0). b0 = ___________________

5. What is your ŷ line or line of regression? This is your estimated regression line.

ŷ = y-intercept + slope.x

ŷ = ___________________________________

5. Using the estimated line of regression formula predict the value of y given for a given x value.

Suppose the score is = 16, what would be the predicted attitude of the student? _________

6. Compute the Coefficient of Determination.

Score Attitude Predicted Error Squared Deviation Standard


Attitude Error Deviation

Plot the points and draw the lines of ŷ and ȳ.


Give the interpretation of the computed r2.
