Answer true or false to each of the following statements and explain your answers.a. In an all-subsets regression, the best subset is the one that has the largest value of R2.b. The value of R2 a, the adjusted R2, can decrease as the number of predictor variables increases.c. The Mallows’ Cp criterion for selecting a subset in all-subsets regression allows comparison of subsets of different sizes.

Olympic Pole Vault The graph in Figure 7 indicates that in recent years the winning Olympic men’s pole vault height has fallen below the value predicted by the regression line in Example 2. This might have occurred because when the pole vault was a new event there was much room for improvement in vaulters’ performances, whereas now even the best training can produce only incremental advances. Let’s see whether concentrating on more recent results gives a better predictor of future records. (a) Use the data in Table 2 (page 176) to complete the table of winning pole vault heights shown in the margin. (Note that we are using x=0 to correspond to the year 1972, where this restricted data set begins.) (b) Find the regression line for the data in part ‚(a). (c) Plot the data and the regression line on the same axes. Does the regression line seem to provide a good model for the data? (d) What does the regression line predict as the winning pole vault height for the 2012 Olympics? Compare this predicted value to the actual 2012 winning height of 5.97 m, as described on page 177. Has this new regression line provided a better prediction than the line in Example 2?
For each of the following, explain what is wrong and why. a)In simple linear regression, the null hypothesis of the ANOVA F test is H0: β0 = 0. b)In an ANOVA table, the mean squares add. In other words, MST = MSM + MSE. c)The smaller the P-value for the ANOVA F test, the greater the explanatory power of the model. d)The total degrees of freedom in an ANOVA table are equal to the number of observations n.
You initially said that the most appropriate statistical analysis for the data is a one sample means t test. Would a one sample t test be more appropriate than a regression?
The following problems can be threats to the validity of a regression discontinuity analysis, with the exception of: a. jumps in covariates. b. manipulation of the assignment variable. c. nonlinear relationship between the assignment and the outcome Variable. d. misallocation of treatment.
For a bivariate regression, the assessment of effect size is determined by Pearson’s r. Group of answer choices True False
Answer true or false to each of the following statements and explain your answers. a. Multicollinearity occurs when two or more of the predictor variables are highly intercorrelated. b. The variance inflation factor, VIF, for a predictor variable cannot change as we add other predictor variables to the regression equation. c. If the points in a three-dimensional scatterplot of predictor variables x1, x2, and x3 lie approximately on a line or a plane, the VIF s for these predictor variables will be close to zero.
Sarah is the office manager for a group of financial advisors who provide financial services for individual clients. She would like to investigate whether a relationship exists between the number of presentations made to prospective clients in a month and the number of new clients per month. The following table shows the number of presentations and corresponding new clients for a random sample of six employees. Employee Presentations New Clients 1 7 2 2 9 3 3 9 4 4 10 3 5 11 5 6 12 3 Sarah would like to use simple regression analysis to estimate the number of new clients per month based on the number of presentations made by the employee per month. The expected number of new clients per month for an employee who made 10 presentations per month is ________. 2.3982 1.6753 3.0521 3.4348

Answer true or false to each of the following statements and explain your answers.a. Statistical methods designed for a particular set of assumptions may not perform well if the assumptions are violated.b. The presence of outliers in the values of the response variable can result in decreased values of the t-statistics for the utility of individual predictor variables.c. Generally, a regression model will predict as well or better for a new set of data than for the data from which it was developed.
