Two econometricians fit regressions using the same data but different sets of explanatory variables. The first estimates Yhat = 18 + 5X1 - 2X2. If one regressed X2 on X1 one would get X2hat = 2 + 8X1. The second econometrician estimated Y = BO + B1X1. What value did the %3D second econometrician get for B1 hat?

Where we observe multicollinearity in a multiple regression analysis, two of our independent variables, x-1 and x-4, are so highly correlated they’re almost indistinguishable with respect to their relationship with our dependent (y) variable. Why is that a problem?
Laetisaric acid is a compound that holds promise for control of fungus diseases in crop plants. Below is the least-squares regression equation to predict fungus growth (mm) from laetisaric acid concentration (µG/ml): ŷ =31.8 -0.712x Which of the following statements is correct? A. Above-average values of laetisaric acid concentration tend to accompany above-average values of fungus growth. B. From the given regression equation, we know the correlation is negative and we can say what the exact value of that correlation is. C. When fungus growth increases by 1 mm, the laetisaric acid concentration decreases by 0.712 µG/ml. D. None of the above.
If the R-squared for a regression model relating the outcome y to an explanatory variable x is 0.9. This implies that there is a positive linear relationship between y and x. True or false?

You have gathered data from a random sample of fast-food sandwiches in order to better understand how the amount of fat in these sandwiches relates to the amount of carbohydrates in the sandwiches. Your ultimate goal is to construct a regression equation to predict amount of carbohydrates based on amount of fat. If this is your goal, which variable should you put on the vertical axis (or y-axis) of a scatterplot of this data? O When conducting a regression analysis, it makes no difference which variable is on which axis. O Amount of fat, because it is the explanatory variable. O Amount of carbohydrates, because it is the explanatory variable. Amount of carbohydrates, because it is the response variable. O Amount of fat, because it is the response variable.
A real estate analyst has developed a multiple regression line, y = 60 + 0.068 x1 – 2.5 x2, to predict y = the market price of a home (in $1,000s), using two independent variables, x1 = the total number of square feet of living space, and x2 = the age of the house in years. With this regression model, the predicted price of a 10-year old home with 2,500 square feet of living area is __________. $205.00 $200,000.00 $205,000.00 $255,000.00
Provide an example of a regression that arguably would have a high value of R² but would produce biased and inconsistent estimators of a causal effect. Explain why the R² is likely to be high. Explain why the OLS estimators would be biased and inconsistent.
A biologist is interested in predicting the percentage increase in lung volume when inhaling (y) for a certain species of bird from the percentage of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere (x). Data collected from a random sample of 20 birds of this species were used to create the least-squares regression equation ŷ = 400-0.08x. Which of the following best describes the meaning of the slope of the least-squares regression line? (A) The percentage increase in lung volume when inhaling increases by 0.08 percent, on average, for every 1 percent increase in the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. (B) The percentage of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere increases by 0.08 percent, on average, for every 1 percent increase in lung volume when inhaling. (C) The percentage increase in lung volume when inhaling decreases by 0.08 percent, on average, for every 1 percent increase in the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. (D) The percentage of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere increases by 0.08 percent, on…
A company studying the productivity of its employees on a new information system was interested in determingg if the age (X) of data entry opeertors influenced the number of completed entries made per hour (Y). The regression equation is y = 14.374 - 0.145x Suppose the acyual completed entries per hour for an operator who is 35 years old was 8. The residual is:
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.
The accompanying scatterplot shows the relationship between the age of an internet user and the amount of time spent browsing the internet per week (in minutes). The accompanying residual plot is also shown along with the QQ plot of the residuals. Choose the statement that best describes whether the condition for Normality of errors does or does not hold for the linear regression model. Choose the statement that best describes whether the condition for Normality of errors does or does not hold for the linear regression model. A.The residual plot displays a fan shape; therefore the Normality condition is not satisfied.B.The QQ plot mostly follows a straight line; therefore the Normality condition is satisfied.C.The scatterplot shows a negative trend; therefore the Normality condition is satisfied.D.The residual plot shows no trend; therefore the Normality condition is not satisfied.
