Civil engineers often use the straight-line equation, E(y) = β0 + β1x, to model the relationship between the mean shear strength E(y) 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.

Give a practical interpretation of R2, the coefficient of determination for the least squares model. Express R2 to the nearest whole percent.
◦ About 91% of the total variation in the sample of y-values can be explained by (or attributed to) the linear relationship between shear strength and precompression stress.
◦ In repeated sampling, approximately 91% of all similarly constructed regression lines will accurately predict shear strength.
◦ We expect about 91% of the observed shear strength values to lie on the least squares line.
◦ We expect to predict the shear strength of a triplet test to within about .91 ton of its true value.

Wow, this really help

 

Did you know?

Vaccines cause herd immunity. If the majority of people in a community have been vaccinated against a disease, an unvaccinated person is less likely to get the disease since others are less likely to become sick from it and spread the disease.

Did you know?

Though Candida and Aspergillus species are the most common fungal pathogens causing invasive fungal disease in the immunocompromised, infections due to previously uncommon hyaline and dematiaceous filamentous fungi are occurring more often today. Rare fungal infections, once accurately diagnosed, may require surgical debridement, immunotherapy, and newer antifungals used singly or in combination with older antifungals, on a case-by-case basis.

Did you know?

Pubic lice (crabs) are usually spread through sexual contact. You cannot catch them by using a public toilet.

Did you know?

Blood in the urine can be a sign of a kidney stone, glomerulonephritis, or other kidney problems.

Did you know?

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.
