Given the table below where x is the amount of new fertilizer applied in kilograms and y is the yield of

kamote in kilograms.

Construct a scatter plot of the data below

X 1 1.5 2 2.5 3 3.5 4 4.5 3.75

Y 25 31 27 28 36 35 32 34 ?

Find the least square estimates of ß0 and ß1

From the least square estimates, approximately how many kilograms of

kamote do you expect from a plot to which 3.75 kg of fertilizer had been applied?

A communication researcher wanted to measure the effect of television viewing on aggressive
behavior. He questioned a random sample of 14 children as to how many hours of television they
watch daily (X) and then, as a measure of aggression, observed the number of schoolmates they
physically attacked (shoved, pushed or hit) on the playground during a 15-minute recess (Y). The
following results were obtained:

X 0 6 2 4 4 1 1 2 5 5 4 0 2 6 3

Y 0 3 2 3 4 1 0 3 3 2 3 1 3 4 ?
