Use theHurricanes(link at bottom)data and via Multiple regression select the three input variables: Min-pressure, Gender, Category in order to predict the All-Deaths. Pick one of the three variables that has the best P-value and re-do the regression using ONLY this one variable to predict the All-deaths. Answer the questions. (Numerical answers are rounded so choose the answer that matches the best).

Answer the questions for Assessment:

13. What variable did you pick?

  • a. Gender
  • b. Min-Pressure
  • c. Category

14. What is the P-value associated to the variable in new table? (Note: numbers are truncated.)

  • a. 8.48599E-05
  • b. 3618.001807
  • c. 9.98769E-05
  • d. -3.710605958

15. Based on the second table, how would you characterize the Regression fit?

  • a. Poor
  • b. Excellent
  • c. None of the above

16. The intercept has coefficient of 3618.001. Which is the best interpretation of this number?

  • a. The number does not make sense since hurricane of category zero is not a hurricane.
  • b. The number does not make sense since we cannot have atmospheric pressure zero.
  • c. The X-intercept; It is how many death is expected if Pressure is zero
  • d. The Y-intercept; It is how many death is expected if Category is zero.
