The following seasonal regression was fitted with quarterly seasonal binaries beginning in the first quarter (Qtr4 is omitted to avoid multicollinearity). Make a prediction for yt in period (a) t = 21; (b) t = 8; (c) t = 15.
yt = 213 + 11 t − 9 Qtr1 + 12 Qtr2 − 15 Qtr3.

Consider the following hypothetical regression, with FAIL? as a dummy variable for if a business failed in its first year (1=failed, 0=didn’t fail); LOAN is how much money, in thousands of dollars, the business got as a loan when it started; GIG? is a dummy variable for if there was a gig economy job available, such as driving for Lyft (1=available, 0=not available), and COMP is the number of existing competitors the business faced when it started. All variables are statistically significant.
FAIL? = 0.63 – 0.01*LOAN – 0.08*GIG? + 0.05*COMP
Answer the following:
Determine the predicted value of FAIL? if the business had a $30,000 loan, there was no gig economy, and four competitors.
In everyday language, what does the estimated value found in A mean?
If a business gets an additional six thousand dollars in loans, how would FAIL? change?
Give the “punchline” interpretation of the COMP variable: “For every additional competitor…”
Consider the multiple regression for the following experiment:
yi=b0+b1x1i+b2x2i+b3x3i+ei
Where yi is the number of touchdowns, x1i is rushing yards, x2i is passing yards, and x3i is the “time of possession of the football” in minutes for that football team.
Which of the following statements is true when making an interpretation of the sample slope coefficient?
a)
a. b2 represents the marginal change in passing yards for every additional touchdown, holding the other variables constant
b)
b. b2 represents the marginal change in touchdowns for every additional passing yard, holding the other variables constant
c)
c. b1 represents the marginal change in touchdowns for every additional passing yard, holding the other variables constant
d)
d. b3 represents the marginal change in touchdowns for every additional minute of time of possession, holding touchdowns constant
The following data came from 6 people randomly selected from a population of children between the ages of 10 and 17. It shows their age and the number of push-ups they can do.
Based on the linear regression equation, what expectation, on average, would we have for the number of push-ups 15-year olds can do?
Round to the nearest whole number.

- 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_forwardFor the following exercises, use Table 4 which shows the percent of unemployed persons 25 years or older who are college graduates in a particular city, by year.
