- A box office analyst seeks to predict opening weekend box office gross for movies. Toward this goal, the analyst plans to use online trailer views as a predictor. For each of the 66 movies, the number of online trailer views from the release of the trailer through the Saturday before a movie opens and the opening weekend box office gross (in millions of dollars) are collected and stored in the accompanying table. A linear regression was performed on these data, and the result is the linear regression equation Yi=−0.840+1.4108Xi. Determine the coefficient of determination,r2,and interpret its meaning. Determine the standard error of the estimate. How useful do you think this regression model is for predicting opening weekend box office gross? Can you think of other variables that might explain the variation in opening weekend box office gross?arrow_forwardA box office analyst seeks to predict opening weekend box office gross for movies.

Betas for individual stocks are determined by simple linear regression. The dependent variable is the total return for the stock, and the independent variable is the total return for the stock market, such as the return of a market index. The slope of this regression equation is referred to as the stock's beta. Many financial analysts prefer to measure the risk of a stock by computing the stock's beta value. Suppose the following data show the monthly percentage returns for the market index and the company for a recent year. Month Market Index% Return Company% Return August -3 4 September 8 7 October 0 1 November -2 1 December -5 0 January 0 0 February 7 7 March 0 -2 April 2 0 May -5 -1 a. Develop the least squares estimated regression equation. (Let x = Market Index % Return (as a %), and let y = Company % Return (as a %).

- A particular article used a multiple regression model to relate y = yield of hops to x₁ = mean temperature (°C) between date of coming into hop and date of picking and x₂ = mean percentage of sunshine during the same period. The model equation proposed is the following. y = 415.116.6x₁4.50x2+e (a) Suppose that this equation does indeed describe the true relationship. What mean yield corresponds to a temperature of 20 and a sunshine percentage of 39? (b) What is the mean yield when the mean temperature and percentage of sunshine are 19.1 and 42, respectively? You may need to use the appropriate table in Appendix A to answer this question.arrow_forwardThe accompanying data are the number of wins and the earned run averages (mean number of earned runs allowed per nine innings pitched) for eight baseball pitchers in a recent season. Find the equation of the regression line. Then construct a scatter plot of the data and draw the regression line.
