Consider the following regression model: Class Average; = Bo + B1 × Office Hours; + u; Class Average is the students' average grade in the class at the end of the term and Office Hours is the number of office hours held by the instructor over the entire term. A researcher who collects data and regresses Class Average against Office Hours finds that, surprisingly, B< 0. The OLS estimator, B,, however, likely suffers from omitted variable bias because instructors who teach large introductory courses with many non-major enrollees, in which grades are relatively low, might hold more office hours than instructors who teach small upper level courses with few non-major enrollees, in which grades are relatively high. Because of this omitted voriable hins it is likely the cose thot ë

If a scatterplot is created in excel, and a line of regression is fit along with a derived functional form, what does it mean to describe and interpret them? What conclusions would be made about relationships between two recorded variables?

A researcher has developed a regression model from fourteen pairs of data points. He wants to test to determine if the slope is significantly different from zero. He uses a two-tailed test and a = 0.01. The critical tablet value is 2.718 3.012 2.650 O 3.055 O 2.168

4. The following regression is fitted using variables identified that could be related to tuition charges ($) of a university. TUITION = a+ B ACCEPT + y MSAT + 1 VSAT Where ACCEPT = the percentage of applicants that was accepted by the university, MSAT = Median Math SAT score for the freshman class and VSAT = Median English SAT score for the freshman class. The data was processed using MNITAB and the following is an extract of the output obtained: Predictor Coef StDev T P Constant -26780 6115 -4.38 0.000 ACCEPT 116.00 37.17 * 0.003 MSAT -4.21 14.12 VSAT 70.85 15.77 -0.30 4.49 0.767 ** S = 2685 R-Sq = 69.6% Analysis of Variance R-Sq (adj) = 67.7% Source DF SS MS F P Regression 3 808139371 Residual Error 49 353193051 269379790 7208021 37.37 0.000 Total 52 1161332421 a) Write out the regression equation. b) State the dependent and independent variable(s) c) Fill in the blanks identified by ** and ****. d) Is B significant, at the 10% level of significance? e) State one limitation of using…
