The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) and the Standard & Poor's 500 (S&P 500) indexes are used as measures of overall movement in the stock market. The DJIA is based on the price movements of 30 large companies; the S&P 500 is an index composed of 500 stocks. Some say the S&P 500 is a better measure of stock market performance because it is broader based. The closing price for the DJIA and the S&P 500 for 15 weeks, beginning with January 6, 2012, follow (Barron's website). Click on the datafile logo to reference the data.

To investigate the importance of passing on the percentage of games won by a team, the following data show the average number of passing yards per attempt (Yds/Att) and the percentage of games won (WinPct) for a random sample of 10 NFL teams for the 2011 season (NFL website). Team Yds /Att WinPct Arizona Cardinals 7.2 51 Atlanta Falcons 6.4 36 Carolina Panthers 7.9 60 Chicago Bears 7.4 46 Dallas Cowboys 7.0 41 New England Patriots 5.4 14 Philadelphia Eagles 8.3 66 Seattle Seahawks 7.4 51 St. Louis Rams 6.9 37 Tampa Bay Buccaneers 8.4 70a.

What does the scatter diagram developed in part (a) indicate about the relationship between the two variables? The scatter diagram indicates a 9 linear relationship between a: = average number of passing yards per attempt and y = the percentage of games won by the team. c. Develop the estimated regression equation that could be used to predict the percentage of games won given the average number of passing yards per attempt. Enter negative value as negative number. WinPct : 0 +( 0)(Yds/Att) (to 4 decimals) d. Provide an interpretation for the slope of the estimated regression equation (to 1 decimal). The slope of the estimated regression line is approximately 0. So, for every 9 of one yard in the average number of passes per attempt, the percentage of games won by the team increases by 8%. e. For the 2011 season, the average number of passing yards per attempt for the Kansas City Chiefs was was 7.3. Use the estimated regression equation developed in part (c) to predict the percentage of games won by the Kansas City Chiefs. (Note: For the 2011 season the Kansas City Chiefs' record was 7 wins and 9 losses.) 0 % (to 2 decimals) Compare your prediction to the actual percentage of games won by the Kansas City Chiefs.
