题目

Problem

Ranpose hospital offers services to a large number of clinics that refer patients to a range of hospitals. The manager at Ranpose hospital took a random sample of 16 clinics and recorded

xx the distance, xx km, of the clinic from Ranpose hospital

yy the percentage, y%y\%, of the referrals from the clinic who attend Ranpose hospital.

The data are summarised as

xˉ=8.1yˉ=20.5y2=8266Sxx=368.16Sxy=630.9\bar x=8.1\qquad \bar y=20.5\qquad \sum y^2=8266\qquad S_{xx}=368.16\qquad S_{xy}=-630.9

(a) Find the product moment correlation coefficient for these data.

(4)

(b) Give an interpretation of your correlation coefficient.

(1)

The manager at Ranpose hospital believes that there may be a linear relationship between the distance of a clinic from the hospital and the percentage of the referrals who attend the hospital. She drew the following scatter diagram for these data.

(c) State, giving a reason, whether or not these data support the manager’s belief.

(1)

The summary data and the scatter diagram are repeated below.

(d) Find the equation of the regression line of yy on xx, giving your answer in the form y=a+bxy=a+bx

(4)

(e) Give an interpretation of the gradient of your regression line.

(1)

(f) Draw your regression line on the scatter diagram.

(1)

The manager believes that Ranpose hospital should be attracting an “above average” percentage of referrals from clinics that are less than 5 km from the hospital. She proposes to target one clinic with some extra publicity about the services Ranpose offers.

(g) On the scatter diagram circle the point representing the clinic she should target.

(a)

思路

展开

先求 SyyS_{yy},再代入 r=SxySxxSyyr=\frac{S_{xy}}{\sqrt{S_{xx}S_{yy}}}

答题过程

展开

Since n=16n=16 and yˉ=20.5\bar y=20.5,

y=16(20.5)=328.\begin{align*} \sum y=16(20.5)=328. \end{align*}

So

Syy=8266328216=1542.\begin{align*} S_{yy}=8266-\frac{328^2}{16}=1542. \end{align*}

Therefore

r=630.9368.16(1542)=0.8373.\begin{aligned} r =&\,\frac{-630.9}{\sqrt{368.16(1542)}}\\ =&\,-0.8373\ldots. \end{aligned}

Hence

r=0.837.\begin{align*} r=-0.837. \end{align*}

思路

展开

负相关表示距离越远,来 Ranpose hospital 的 referral 百分比通常越低。

答题过程

展开

As the distance from Ranpose hospital increases, the percentage of referrals attending Ranpose hospital tends to decrease.

(c)

解法一

思路

展开

散点图大致沿一条下降直线排列,且 rr 接近 1-1,支持线性关系。

答题过程

展开

Yes. The points lie close to a straight line with negative gradient, so the data support the manager’s belief.

(d)

解法一

思路

展开

回归线 yy on xx 的斜率是 b=SxySxxb=\frac{S_{xy}}{S_{xx}},截距用 (xˉ,yˉ)(\bar x,\bar y) 求。

答题过程

展开 b=SxySxx=630.9368.16=1.7136.b=\frac{S_{xy}}{S_{xx}} =\frac{-630.9}{368.16} =-1.7136\ldots.

Also,

a=yˉbxˉ.\begin{align*} a=\bar y-b\bar x. \end{align*}

So

a=20.5(1.7136)(8.1)=34.3806.\begin{align*} a=20.5-(-1.7136\ldots)(8.1)=34.3806\ldots. \end{align*}

Therefore the regression line is

y=34.41.71x.\begin{align*} y=34.4-1.71x. \end{align*}

(e)

解法一

思路

展开

斜率约为 1.71-1.71,表示距离每增加 1 km,referrals percentage 平均下降约 1.7 percentage points。

答题过程

展开

For each extra kilometre from the hospital, the percentage of referrals attending Ranpose hospital decreases by about 1.71.7 percentage points.

(f)

解法一

思路

展开

画线可取两个点,例如 x=0x=0x=20x=20

答题过程

展开

Using y=34.41.71xy=34.4-1.71x,

y(0)=34.4,y(20)=0.2.\begin{align*} y(0)=34.4,\qquad y(20)=0.2. \end{align*}

Draw the line through approximately (0,34.4)(0,34.4) and (20,0.2)(20,0.2).

思路

展开

要找距离小于 5 km 且 referral percentage 低于平均表现、最值得宣传的点。图中对应点约为 (3.2,19)(3.2,19)

答题过程

展开

Circle the point approximately

(3.2,19).\begin{align*} (3.2,19). \end{align*}
