Question

Transcribed Image Text:Below, we see a snippet of a dataset that consists of 128 observations and 15 variables. We present
two models describing the linear relationship between the BodyFat and other variables.

Consider the two models
Salary = 6366 +9.3 Age - 329.56 Male, R² = 0.135, ² = 1099 (1)
and
log(Salary) = 5.342 +0.012 Age-0.321 Male, R² = 0.178, ²= 1.231. (2)
Consider another model
log(Salary) = 3.54 +0.127 Age -0.321 Male, R² = 0.880, ² = 0.757. (3)
(iii) Is model (3) better than model (2)? Why?
