Reconsider the previous exercise about the amount of sleep (in hours) obtained in the previous night and time to complete a paper and pencil maze (in seconds). Th e equation of the least squares regression line for predicting price from number of pages is time = 190.33 − 7.76 (sleep).
a. Interpret what the slope coefficient means in the context of sleep and time to complete the maze.
b. Interpret the intercept. Is this an example of extrapolation? Why or why not?
Previous exercises
Student researchers asked their subjects how much sleep they had the previous night (in hours) and then timed how long it took them (in seconds) to complete a paper and pencil maze. The results are shown in the scatterplot along with the regression line.
