was almost $200 million, whilc the total payroll fbr
the Oakland Athletics (a team known fbr using base-
ball analytics or sabermetrics) was about $55 million,
lc:ss than one-third o{ the Yankees payroll. In thc fol-
lowing table. you q,ill see the payrolls (in millions)
and thc total rumb.:r ol- victories I'or the baseball
tcams in thc American l-eague in the 20l2 soason.
Devclop a regression nrodel to predict the total rtum-
ber of victories based on tht: payroll. Use the model to
predict the number of victones tor a team with a pay-
roll oi ti79 million. Based on the results of the com-

Find thc bcst rcgression modcl to predict the lotal

n.rodel. Should both variables be included in the
rnodel? Why or why not?
A sample of 20 automobiles wa,s taken. and the
miles per gallon (MPG). horsepower. and lotal
*'eight were recorded. Dcvelop a linear regression
model to predict MPG, using horsepower as the only
independent variable. Develop anorher rnodel with
wei-cht as the independent variahle. Which of these
two models is better? Explain.

consider.) How docs this compare to the rnodels in
Problems 4-26 and 1-27?
4-29 A sample of nirrc public universities and nint prilatc-
lrniversities was taken. The total cost tbr the year (in-
cluding room and board) and the median SAT score
(maximum total is 2400) at each school were recorded.
It was felt that schools with higher rnedian SAT scores
would have a better reputation and would charge more
tuition as a result of that. The data are in the follow-
ing tablc. Use regression to help answer thc lollow-
ing qucstions bascd on this samplc data. Do schools
with higher SAT scores charge more in tuition and
fees'l Are private schools more expensivc than pub-
lic schools when SAT scores are taken into consider-
ation? Discuss how accurate you believe these results
are using infomration related to the regression models.
