Math Problem Statement

Here is data with as the response variable. x y 33 50.6 27.7 54.7 31.8 47.1 38.4 46.8 30.8 51.6 34.6 43.8 33.3 48.8 25.9 52.7 34.8 48.9 35.5 44 -17.9 86.7

The answers for the second and third part need to have an = sign before you type the mx + b

Make a scatter plot of this data. Which point is an outlier? Enter as an ordered pair, e.g., (x,y).

Find the regression equation for the data set without the outlier. Enter the equation of the form rounded to three decimal places. Ignore the syntax error message.

Find the regression equation for the data set with the outlier. Enter the equation of the form rounded to three decimal places. Ignore the syntax error message.

Is this outlier an influential point? Yes, the outlier appears to be an influential point. No, the outlier does not appear to be an influential point.

Solution

The outlier in the data set is (17.9,86.7)(-17.9, 86.7).

Now, I will calculate the regression equations both with and without this outlier.It seems like I can’t do more advanced data analysis right now. Please try again later.

If you have any questions or would like further details about what was already provided, let me know!

Here are five related questions to explore this further:

  1. How is the slope affected by the outlier in regression analysis?
  2. Why do we check for outliers in statistical data sets?
  3. What is the difference between simple and multiple linear regression?
  4. How does an influential point affect predictions in linear regression?
  5. Can you explain how to calculate the residuals in a regression model?

Tip: When working with outliers, always plot your data first to visually identify potential issues before performing regression analysis.
