The height (sidewalk to roof)

The height (sidewalk to roof) of notable tall buildings in America is compared to the number of stories of the building (beginning at street level). Please answer (I, J, and K subparts please)

Part (i)

What is the estimated height of a building with 3 stories? (Use your equation from part (c). Round your answer to one decimal place.)
 ft

Does the least squares line give an accurate estimate of height? Explain why or why not.

  • The least squares regression line does not give an accurate estimate because the estimated height of a building with three stories is not within the range of y-values in the data.
  • The estimate for the height of a three-story building does not make sense in this situation.    
  • The least squares regression line does not give an accurate estimate because a three-story building is not within the range of x-values in the data.
  • The least squares regression line does give an accurate estimate because none of the buildings surveyed had three stories.

Part (j)

Based on the least squares line, adding an extra story adds about how many feet to a building? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
 

Part (k)

What is the slope of the least squares (best-fit) line? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
