10. A researcher collects the following data and determines that there is a significant relationship between the age of UTM machine and its monthly maintenance cost. The regression equation is y'-55.57 + 8.13x Find the standard error of the estimate, and find the 99% prediction interval for the monthly maintenance cost of a UTM machine that is 5 years old. Machine Age r (years) Monthly cost y S 62 78 70 90 93 103
A researcher was interested in predicting the birth weight of babies in a particular population. Data was collected from 42 babies and their parents at the time of birth. The following variables were included in the data collection: birth weight (lbs) (Birthweight), gestational age of the baby at birth (weeks) (Gestation), mother's height (mheight) and weight (before pregnancy) (mppwt), mother's age at time of birth (motherage), and mother's smoking status (smokes/does not smoke) (smoker). The researcher is trying to decide...
Simple Linear regression
1. A researcher uses a simple linear regression to measure the relationship between the monthly salary (Salary measured in dollars) of data scientists and the number of years since being awarded a Master degree (Master Degree). A random sample of 80 observations was collected for the analysis. A researcher used the econometric model which has the following specification Salary,-β0 + β, Master-Degree, + εί, where i = 1, , 80 The (incomplete) Excel output of equation (1)...
QUESTION 4 (a) The researcher is concerned that older persons may not be knowledgeable of the COFLU-20. As such, he is interested in investigating the association between the age of the respondents and their knowledge level. Table 2 below shows the knowledge level of respondents, by age group. Age Group Knowledge Level Total Poor Satisfactory Good 18-25 33 16 13 62 26-34 30 18 12 60 35-44 29 14 12 55 45-54 36 16 18 70 55-75 17 14 22...
(a) The production manager of ABC Co. Ltd. has found that the relationship between production cost (y in $) and lot size (x in units) of a certain product is linear. A random sample of eight lots is taken and the results are summarized as below: Xx=941, Xx? = 325751, y=9570, y =32849700 and X xy = 3271030 (i) Find the least squares linear regression equation for predicting production cost on lot size. (4 marks) (ii) Calculate the coefficient of...
Assignment 10 1. A random sample of 37 drivers insured with a company having similar auto insurance policies) was selected The data table lists each of the driver's driving experience in years (DU), and their monthly auto insurance pre- miums in dollars (CU). A researcher wished to determine the following: Correlation: Experience (yrs) 1. On an a priori basis, would the researcher expect a positive or negative inverse) relationship between years driving experience and monthly insurance pre- miums? 4 4...

3. A hospital administrator wished to study the relation between patient satisfaction (Y) and patients age (Xi, in years), severity of illness (X2, an index) and anxiety level (X3, an index). The administrator randomly selected 23 patients and collected the data in pat, where larger values of Y, X2 and X3 are, respectively, associated with more satisfaction, increased severity of illness and more anxiety. The data is saved in Moodle2...
The accompanying computer excel output
(please see attachment on Blackboard) provides details of data and
analysis on the topic of “patient satisfaction”. A hospital
administrator wished to study the relation between patient
satisfaction (Y) and patients’ age (X1, in years) , severity of
illness (X2), and anxiety level (X3).
The output includes a listing of all
46 observations; descriptive statistics for each variable; and, the
results of a regression analysis that uses patient satisfaction as
the dependent variable, and patient’s...
In this exercise, you will investigate the relationship between a worker's age and earnings. (Generally, older workers have more job experience, leading to higher productivity and earnings.) The following table contains data for full-time, full-years workers, age 25-34, with a high school diploma or B.A./B.S. as their highest degree. Download the data from the table by clicking the download table icon 0 . A detailed description of the variables used in the data set is available here Use a statistical...
