Numerical Answer Only Type Question Enter the numerical value only for the correct answer in the blank box. If a decimal point appears, round it to two decimal places. Assume that the number of visits by a particular customer to a mall located in downtown Toronto is related to the distance from the customer's home. The following regression analysis shows the relationship between the number of times a customer visits(Y)per month and the distance(X, measured in km) from the customer's home to the mall. \[ Y=15-0.5 X \] A customer who lives30 kmaway from the mall will visi______ who lives10 km away. less times than a customer

Sally Sells Sea Shells by the Sea Shore and collects all sales dataNow she is curious to find out what the elasticity of demand is for her shells Assume they are all the same type and quantity She scatter plots the data and finds there is a linear relationship that looks ripe for a regression estimation of the price response function for her shells The slope of her regression line is 61. Currently, her average daily price is 11.74 and she sells 95 quantity at that priceCalculate the point elasticity of demand for her sea shells

You are interested in how the number of hours a high school student has to work in an outside job has on their GPA. In your regression you want to control for high school standing and so you run the following regression: GPA = 3.4 0.03 * HrsWrk - 0.7 * Frosh - 0.3 * Soph +0.1 * Junior (1.1) (0.013) (0.23) (0.14) (0.08) where HrsWrk is the number of hours the student works per week, and Frosh, Soph, and Junior are dummy variables for the student's class standing. a) If you include a dummy variable for seniors, that would cause a Hint: type one word in each blank. For the rest of questions, type a number in one decimal place. b) The expected GPA of a Sophomore who works 10 hours per week is c) The expected GPA of a Senior who works 10 hours per week is d) If Dom and Sarah work the same number of hours per week, but Dom is a Junior and Sarah is a Freshman. Dom is expected to have a higher GPA than Sarah. e) Suppose you rewrite the regression as: problem. GPA = ₁HrsWrk + ß2Frosh + B2Soph +…

A guidance counselor wants to determine if there is a relationship between a student's number of absences, x, and their grade point average (GPA), y. The data that were collected are displayed in the scatterplot and the least-squares regression line was calculated. One student with 2 absences has a GPA of 1.8. This point is circled on the graph. GPA and Absences 4.8 4.4 4.0 3.6 3.2 2.8 2.4 2.0 1.6 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 Absences (Days) What effect does the circled point have on the standard deviation of the residuals? This point will increase the value of the standard deviation of the residuals because it has a large positive residual. This point will increase the value of the standard deviation of the residuals because it has a large negative residual. This point will not affect the value of the standard deviation of the residuals because it has a large positive residual. This point will decrease the value of the standard deviation of the residuals because it has a large negative residual.…

You have data on the training regime of 100m elite runners. For each runner you observe their best run of the year (in second) (pb), the number of hours they train each week (tr) and a dummy variable equal to 1 if thei are male (male). Using OLS you get the following regression: pb= 36.2 1.3male -0.92tr +0.009tr² -0.09male tr +0.001male * (tr²) How many hours should a male elite runner train each week to minimize the time of their best run of the year?
