A manufacturer of boiler drums wants to use regression to predict the number of man-hours needed to erect drums in the future. The manufacturer collected a random sample of 35 boilers and measured the following two variables:
MANHRS: y = Number of man-hours required to erect the drum
PRESSURE: x1= Boiler design pressure (pounds per square inch, i.e., psi)
Initially, the simple linear model E(y) = β0 + β1x1 was fit to the data. A printout for the analysis appears below:

UNWEIGHTED LEAST SQUARES LINEAR REGRESSION OF MANHRS







Give a practical interpretation of the coefficient of determination, R2. Express R2 to the nearest whole percent.
◦ About 43% of the sample variation in number of man-hours can be explained by the simple linear model.
◦ About 2.06% of the sample variation in number of man-hours can be explained by the simple linear model.
◦ = 1.88 + 0.00321x will be correct 43% of the time.
◦ Man hours needed to erect drums will be associated with boiler design pressure 43% of the time.

There are major differences in the metabolism of morphine and the illegal drug heroin. Morphine mostly produces its CNS effects through m-receptors, and at k- and d-receptors. Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).
