The Child Health and Development Studies investigate a range of topics. One study considered all pregnancies between 1960 and 1967 among women in the Kaiser Foundation Health Plan in the San Francisco East Bay area. Here, we study the relationship between smoking and weight of the baby. The variable smoke is coded 1 if the mother is a smoker, and 0 if not. The summary table below shows the results of a linear regression model for predicting the average birth weight of babies, measured in ounces, based on the smoking status ofthe mother. Estimate Std. Error t value Pr(>|t|)(Intercept) 123.05 0.65 189.60 0.0000smoke -8.94 1.03 -8.65 0.0000The variability within the smokers and non-smokers are about equal and the distributions aresymmetric. With these conditions satisfied, it is reasonable to apply the model. (Note that wedon't need to check linearity since the predictor has only two levels.)(a) Write the equation of the regression line.(b) Interpret the slope in this context, and calculate the predicted birth weight of babies born tosmoker and non-smoker mothers.(c) Is there a statistically significant relationship between the average birth weight and smoking?
