Consider a linear regression model where y represents the response variable, x is a quantitative explanatory variable, and d is a dummy variable. The model is estimated as yˆy^ = 14.4 + 4.6x − 3.1d.
a. Interpret the dummy variable coefficient.
Intercept shifts down by 3.1 units as d changes from 0 to 1.
Slope shifts down by 3.1 units as d changes from 0 to 1.
Intercept shifts up by 3.1 units as d changes from 0 to 1.
Slope shifts up by 3.1 units as d changes from 0 to 1.
b. Compute yˆy^ for x = 3 and d = 1. (Round your answer to 1 decimal place.)
c. Compute yˆy^ for x = 3 and d = 0. (Round your answer to 1 decimal place.)
Ans:
a)
Intercept shifts down by 3.1 units as d changes from 0 to 1.
b)
when x=3 and d=1
y' = 14.4 + 4.6*3 − 3.1*1=25.1
c)
when x=3 and d=0
y' = 14.4 + 4.6*3 − 3.1*0=28.2

Decide (with short explanations) whether the following statements are true or false. e) In a simple linear regression model with explanatory variable x and outcome variable y, we have these summary statisties z-10, s/-3 sy-5 and у-20. For a new data point with x = 13, it is possible that the predicted value is y = 26. f A standard multiple regression model with continuous predictors and r2, a categorical predictor T with four values, an interaction between a and...

Where appropriate, linear regression with one explanatory variable can be performed through the origin', that is, with the intercept α fixed equal to zero. The log-likelihood in this reduced model is So(B) 1(8, o)-constant-n log ơ--2 where 7 (by setting α = 0 in Equations (11.5) and (11.6) in subsection 2.1 of Unit 11). Solve the equation dS。(β)/dd = 0 to provide the candidate value fy for the value of β that minimises So(1) (it can be confirmed that β...
