The operations manager of a musical instrument distributor feels that the demand for Bass Drums may be related to the number of
television appearances by the popular rick group Green Shades during the previous month. The manager has collected the data shown
in the following table.
Demand for Bass Drums
3 6 7 5 10 8
Green Shades TV appearances
3 4 7 6 8 5
Develop the linear regression equation to forecast.
Forecast demand for Bass Drums when Green Shades’ TV appearances are 10.
Compute MSE and standard deviation for Problem 8.
Although the Excel regression output, shown in Figure 12.21 for Demonstration Problem 12.1, is somewhat different from the Minitab output, the same essential regression features are present. The regression equation is found under Coefficients at the bottom of ANOVA. The slope or coefficient of x is 2.2315 and the y-intercept is 30.9125. The standard error of the estimate for the hospital problem is given as the fourth statistic under Regression Statistics at the top of the output, Standard Error = 15.6491. The r2 value is given as 0.886 on the second line. The t test for the slope is found under t Stat near the bottom of the ANOVA section on the “Number of Beds” (x variable) row, t = 8.83. Adjacent to the t Stat is the p-value, which is the probability of the t statistic occurring by chance if the null hypothesis is true. For this slope, the probability shown is 0.000005. The ANOVA table is in the middle of the output with the F value having the same probability as the t statistic,…
) In estimating the regression in problem #2, you are also concerned that the t-statistics may be inflated because of the presence of conditional heteroscedasticity. You conduct a regression of the squared residuals against the dummy variables X1, X2, and X3 and find that for the squared residuals regression:
Multiple R
0.4145
R Square
0.1718
Adjusted R Square
0.1600
SEE
92.3760
Conduct a test at the level to see if conditional heteroskedasticity is present
In view of your answer for a), what needs to be done?

- 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?arrow_forwardIn estimating the regression in problem #2, you are also concerned that the t-statistics may be inflated because of the presence of conditional heteroscedasticity.
