5.51Â Some straightforward but slightly tedious algebra shows that
a = 5.20683380
b = -0.3421541
SSResid = 11 - r 2 2 a 1y - y 2 2
a.    Construct a scatterplot of the data. Do you think the
least-squares line will give accurate predictions? Explain.
b.    Delete the observation with the largest x value from the sample and recalculate the equation of the least-squares line. Does this observation greatly affect the equation of the line?
c.    What effect does the deletion in Part (b) have on the value of r2? Can you explain why this is so?
