The extra point, part 2. The original five points in Exercise 33 produce a regression line with slope 0. Match each of the green points (a-e) with the slope of the line after that one point is added:
1) - 0.45
2) - 0.30
3) 0.00
4) 0.05
5) 0.85
a) Interpret the slope of the line in this context.
b) Interpret the y-intercept of the line in this context.
c) During months when the temperature stays around freezing, would you expect cost predictions based on this model to be accurate, too low, or too high? Explain.
d) What heating cost does the model predict for a month that averages 10°?
e) During one of the months on which the model was based, the temperature did average 10°. What were the actual heating costs for that month?
f) Do you think the home owner should use this model? Explain.
g) Would this model be more successful if the temperature were expressed in degrees Celsius? Explain.
