The Ipod Touch has been out for several years now and a lot of data has been collected. There is a functional relationship between the Price of an IPod Touch and Weekly Demand. Below is a table of data that have been collected Price P ($) Weekly Demand S (1,000s) 150 207 170 208 190 192 210 190 230 185 250 169 A.. Find the linear model that best fits this data using regression and enter the model below (for entry round the slope value to nearest 0.01 and constant parameter to nearest 1) T(p) = Now answer these two questions: B.. What does the model predict will be the weekly demand if the price of an ipod touch is $191 ? (nearest 100) C. According to the model at what should the price be set in order to have a weekly demand of 194,800 ipod Touches? $ (nearest $1) Note: In the "real" world Apple sold about 20 million Ipod Touch's from Sept. 2007-Sept. 2009

Imagine you are trying to explain the effect of square footage on home sale prices in the United States. You collect a random sample of 100,000 homes that recently sold. a) Homes can be one of three types: single-family houses, townhomes, or condos. How would you control for a home’s type in a regression model? b) Write down a regression model that includes controls for home type, square footage, and number of bedrooms. c) How would you interpret the es3mated coefficients for each of the variables from part b? Be specific.
The following data relate the sales figures of the bar in Mark Kaltenbach's small bed-and-breakfast inn in portland, to the number of guest registered that week: week guests bar sales 1 16 $330 2 12 $270 3 18 $380 4 14 $315 a) The simple linear regression equation that relates bar sales to number of guests(not to time) is (round your responses to one decimal place): Bar sales = [___]+[___]X guests
The table below shows the number, in thousands, of vehicles parked in the central business district of a certain city on a typical Friday as a function of the hour of the day. Hour of the day Vehicles parked(thousands) 9 A.M. 6.2 11 A.M. 7.4 1 P.M. 7.5 3 P.M. 6.6 5 P.M. 3.9 (a) Use regression to find a quadratic model for the data. (Let V be the number of vehicles and t be the time in hours since midnight. Round the regression parameters to three decimal places.) V = (b) Express using functional notation the number of vehicles parked on a typical Friday at 4 P.M., and then estimate that value. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) V = = thousand
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
General Cereals is using a regression model to estimate the demand for Tweetie Sweeties, a whistle-shaped, sugar-coated breakfast cereal for children. The following (multiplicative exponential) demand function is being used: QD=6,280 P(−1.85)A2.05N2.70QD=6,280 P−1.85A2.05N2.70 where QDQD = quantity demanded, in 10-oz boxes PP = price per box, in dollars AA = advertising expenditures on daytime television, in dollars NN = proportion of the population under 12 years old, in percent What is the point price elasticity of demand for Tweetie Sweeties? 2.05 2.70 -0.90 -1.85 What is the advertising elasticity of demand? 0.76 -1.85 2.70 2.05
Hello, I am trying to find the equations on my calculator for the price-demand and price supply equations. The data is in the attached image. I think I am doing something wrong, but not sure what. I found the quadratic regression model for the first set of data using my calculator, but I used the p=D(x) as list one, and x, as list two. I came up with 0.028x^2-23x +5743 is this right? or do I need the reverse the order? For the price-supply data I but the p=S(x) as list 1 and x as list 2 and I got the linear regression function: 2 5.1x+342 Can you please let me know if I am on the right track?
Consider the following estimated regression model relating annual salary to years of education and work experience. Estimated Salary=10,160.10+3147.75(Education)+1230.34(Experience) Suppose an employee with 8 years of education has been with the company for 20 years (note that education years are the number of years after 8th grade). According to this model, what is his estimated annual salary?

A realtor was investigating the price of real estate based on the size of the house in square feet x1 and if the house was within walking distance of an "A" rated public school. The indicator variable is defined as x = 1 if the house is within walking distance of an "A" rated public school and x = 0 if the house is NOT within walking distance of an "A" rated public school. If there was interaction in the regression problem, an appropriately fit regression model would have…? a) A different slope and different y-intercept for those within walking distance and those not. b) A different y-intercept for those that were within walking distance and those that were not; the slope would not change. c) A different slope, but not a different y-intercept for those within walking distance and those not. d) Cannot be determined
Please no written by hand and no emage Your company, which specializes in running shoes for men who are growing increasingly follicly-challenged (BalderDash®), has the following demand function: Q = a + bP + cM + dR where Q is the quantity demanded of BalderDash’s most popular shoes, P is the price of that product, M is consumer income, and R is the price of a related product. The regression results are: Adjusted R Square 0.7796 Independent Variables Coefficients Standard Error t Stat P-value Intercept 21,055.04 1428.27 14.74 8.1E-16 P -83.912 19.079 -4.398 0.000 M 0.0266 0.013 2.064 0.047 R -16.6 10.664 -1.556 0.129 Discuss whether you think these regression results will generate good sales estimates for BalderDash. Now assume that the income is $69,100, the price of the related good is $39, and BalderDash chooses to set the price of its product at $54. b. What is the estimated number of units sold given the data above? (round to nearest unit; no decimals) c.…
