(A) 0.71

Questions 10-12: A simple linear regression model was fit to the situation of using the number of pages in a book (in hundreds) to predict the number of typos in the book. The equation is y = 1.2 + 3.4x.
10. Interpret the slope.
(A) For every additional page in length, a book is expected to have an extra 3.4 typos on average.
(B) A 400-page book, on average, should have 3.4 more typos than a 300-page book.
(C) For every additional 3.4 pages in length, a book is expected to have an extra 1.2 typos on average.
(D) The slope has no practical interpretation in this context.
11. Find the predicted number of typos in a 500-page book.
(A) 17
(B) 18.2
(C) 171.2
(D) 1701.2
12. Explain what it would mean if an actual 500-page book had a residual of -3.2.
(A) This particular book is definitely an outlier and should be dropped from the model.
(B) This particular book had a predicted value smaller than its actual value.
(C) This particular book had a predicted value larger than its actual value.
(D) A mistake has been made since residuals cannot be negative.
