In a study of the performance of a new engine design, the weight of 22 aircrafts (in tons) and the top speed (in mph) were recorded. A regression line was generated and shown to be an appropriate description of the relationship. The results of the regression analysis are below. Depend Variable: Top Speed Variable Constant Weight Coefficient 11.6559 3.47812 s.e. of Coeff 0.3153 0.294 t-ratio 37 11.8 prob ≤ 0.0001 ≤ 0.0001 R squared = 87.5% R squared (adjusted) = 86.9% s = 0.6174 with 22 - 2 = 20 degrees of freedom Part A: What is the LSRL based on the analysis provided? Make sure to identify what the variables represent in the context of the problem. (4 points) Part B: What is the predicted value for the top speed of an aircraft if its weight is 100 tons?

Step 1
The LSRL equation is given by y = a + bx, where y is the dependent variable (top speed), x is the independent variable (weight), a is the y-intercept (constant), and b is the slope (coefficient of weight). From the given data, the constant (a) is 11.6559 and the Show more…

(2 points) Part B: List the conditions for inference that need to be verified. Assuming these conditions have been met, does the data provide convincing evidence of a relationship between weight and top speed? (4 points) Part C: Assuming all conditions for inference have been verified, determine a 95% confidence interval estimate for the slope of the regression line. (4 points)

In a study of the performance of a new engine design, the weight of 12 cars (in pounds) and the top speed (in mph) were recorded. A regression line was generated and shown to be an appropriate description of the relationship.

The $12-\mathrm{Mg}$ jet airplane has a constant speed of $950 \mathrm{km} / \mathrm{h}$ when it is flying along a horizontal straight line. Air enters the intake scoops $\mathrm{S}$ at the rate of $50 \mathrm{m}^{3} / \mathrm{s}$. If the engine burns fuel at the rate of $0.4 \mathrm{kg} / \mathrm{s}$ and the gas (air and fuel) is exhausted relative to the plane with a speed of $450 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s},$ determine the resultant drag force exerted on the plane by air resistance. Assume that air has a constant density of $1.22 \mathrm{kg} / \mathrm{m}^{3} .$ Hint: since mass both enters and exits the plane, Eqs. $15-28$ and $15-29$ must be combined to yield $$\Sigma F_{x}=m \frac{d v}{d t}-v_{D / c} \frac{d m_{e}}{d t}+v_{D / i} \frac{d m_{i}}{d t}$$
