Lab Test Sta 250

- The researcher analyzed the relationship between water-soluble pectin (x) and sweetness index (y) and found a moderate positive linear relationship. - The regression model was found to be statistically significant, with 41.8% of the variation in y explained by x. - Testing showed that as x increases, y tends to increase, supporting the researcher's hypothesis. - Diagnostic checks confirmed the errors were normally distributed and exhibited consistent variance.

Check linearity

- Based on the scatter plot graph there is a moderate positive linear relationship between x
and y

Find the value of standard error estimate. Then, explain the reliability of the model.

- According to the model summary table, the value of standard error is 0.24237
-The value of standard error is 0.24237 which is less than the value of 10% of the mean
sweetness index which is 0.57208 meaning the reliability of the model is good.

Are the error terms independent/no serial correlation? Give a reason.

Yes, the error terms are independent because the Durbin Watson value which is between 1.5
and 2.5.

Construct the analysis of variance table. Test the model at 5% significance level.

H0: The regression model is not significant. H1:


The regression model is significant.

p-value<= significance level

Reject H0.

The regression model is significant as p value (0.001) is less than significance level (0.05).

State the value of correlation coefficient and coefficient of determination. Hence, interpret the
values obtained

-The correlation coefficient(R) is 0.646, it means it is a moderate positive linear relationship


between x and y

-The coefficient of determination (R2) is 0.418, it means that 41.8% of total variation in sweetness
index is explained by the amount of water-soluble pectin and 58.2% is explain by other factors.

The researcher believes that sweetness index tends to be higher as the amount of water-soluble
pectin increases. Test the significance of the statement at a 5% level of significance.
H(0): increase in x does not result in a higher y
H(1): increase in x result in higher y

The P value(0.000) is lesser than Alpha value (0.05)

Reject H(0)
We have enough evidence to conclude that the increase in x results in a higher y.
Using suitable graph, check the normality of the error term.

Based on the P-plot of residual it shows that the errors are normaly distributed because the
plots are close or on the 45-degree line.

Check on the consistency variance of the error term.

The error variance is consistent because it is randomly scattered and no obvious pattern

State the 95% confidence interval for the slope. Interpret the value obtained.

-We can be 95% confidence that when the water soluble increase by 1 mil, the mean of Sweetness
index will be between 0.001 and 0.003.
