Civil engineers often use the straight-line equation, = β0 + β1x, to model the relationship between the mean shear strength of masonry joints and precompression stress, x. To test this theory, a series of stress tests were performed on solid bricks arranged in triplets and joined with mortar. The precompression stress was varied for each triplet and the ultimate shear load just before failure (called the shear strength) was recorded. The stress results for n = 7 triplet tests is shown in the accompanying table followed by a SAS printout of the regression analysis.

Parameter Estimates

Parameter Standard      T for HO:
Variable DF Estimate Error Parameter=0 Prob > |T|

INTERCEP 1 1.191930 0.18503093 6.442 0.0013
 X 1 0.987157 0.14288331 6.909 0.0010

Give a practical interpretation of the estimate of the y-intercept of the least squares line.
◦ There is no practical interpretation since a triplet test with a precompression stress of 0 tons is outside the range of the sample data.
◦ For a triplet test with a precompression stress of 0 tons, we estimate the shear strength of the joint to increase 1.19 tons.
◦ For every 1 ton increase in precompression stress, we estimate the shear strength of the joint to increase by 0.987 ton.
◦ For a triplet test with a precompression stress of 0 tons, we estimate the shear strength of the joint to be 1.19 tons.

The tallest man ever known was Robert Wadlow, an American, who reached the height of 8 feet 11 inches. He died at age 26 years from an infection caused by the immense weight of his body (491 pounds) and the stress on his leg bones and muscles.

Stevens-Johnson syndrome and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis syndrome are life-threatening reactions that can result in death. Complications include permanent blindness, dry-eye syndrome, lung damage, photophobia, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, permanent loss of nail beds, scarring of mucous membranes, arthritis, and chronic fatigue syndrome. Many patients' pores scar shut, causing them to retain heat.
