5. The following table describes the effect of wearing a mask on the probability of contracting COVID- 19 from another person. Apply the regression equation y = Bo + ₁x + ε to the problem at hand. 6. # 7. Contracting COVID-19 Masks 9. 70% 8. 0 10. 1 11.5% 13. 1.5% 12.2 a. What is the dependent variable? b. What is the independent variable? C. Calculate the r correlation between the dependent and the independent variables. What do you learn? d. Use the table to estimate the model ŷ = Bo + Bo + e. e. What is the slope? f. Interpret the meaning of the slope. g. What is the intercept? h. Interpret the meaning of the intercept. i. Calculate R² for this model. What do you learn about the goodness of fit? j. Add a column with residuals to the table. What can you learn from the residuals about the goodness of fit? k. Describe what you have learned from this exercise about the importance of wearing a mask in public settings.
