These include GDP (gross domestic product per capita) and trade balances (measured as a percentage of GDP). Exporting countries tend to have large positive trade balances. Importers have negative balances. The data are shown in the accompanying table. Formulate the SRM with GDP as the response and Trade Balance as the explanatory variable. Complete parts (a) through (c) below. Click the icon to view the data table. (a) Country X reported the highest positive balance of trade, 24.2% of GDP and per capita GDP equal to $63,000. Fit the least squares equation both with and without country X and compare the results. Does the fitted slope change by very much? Find the least squares equation without country X.
