Question
The MBA program surveyed the catastrophe that was his fall 2017 intake. His 257 admitted students had performed miserably and he needed to determine why. He built a regression model to predict their overall class average after their first semester based on these factors that weighed heavily in their admission process: undergraduate GPA, GMAT score, years of professional employment, shoe size, TOEFL score, and 40 yard dash. What value of F is critical at the 0.01 level?

Your description should include one dependent variable and three or more predictors.arrow_forwardA rural state wants to encourage high school graduates to continue their education and attend college. The state collected information on a random sample of high school seniors from across the state 7 years ago and is now observing how many years of education they completed. They believe students decide to achieve more education when they are more capable, have easier access to college education, and the opportunity cost of attending are lower. To explore the factors that affect the years of education completed they have used multiple regression to estimate the years of completed education as a function of: Unemployment rate - the unemployment rate in the county (3.9 – 16.8) County Hr Wage - average starting hourly manufacturing wage in the county Test - student score on college admission test (0 to 100 scale) Dist to college - Distance to near college (measured in 100’s of miles) Tuition - Tuition charged at nearest state university (measured in $1000s)…arrow_forwardPlease don't provide handwritten solution.....arrow_forward

- The datasetBody.xlsgives the percent of weight made up of body fat for 100 men as well as other variables such as Age, Weight (lb), Height (in), and circumference (cm) measurements for the Neck, Chest, Abdomen, Ankle, Biceps, and Wrist. We are interested in predicting body fat based on abdomen circumference. Find the equation of the regression line relating to body fat and abdomen circumference. Make a scatter-plot with a regression line. What body fat percent does the line predict for a person with an abdomen circumference of 110 cm? One of the men in the study had an abdomen circumference of 92.4 cm and a body fat of 22.5 percent. Find the residual that corresponds to this observation.

- Hiroshi Sato, an owner of a sushi restaurant in San Francisco, has been following an aggressive marketing campaign to thwart the effect of rising unemployment rates on business. He used monthly data on sales ($1,000s), advertising costs ($), and the unemployment rate (%) fromJanuary 2008 to May 2009 to estimate the following sample regression equation: Sales(t) = 17.51 +0.05 Advertising Costs(t-1) – 0.70 Unemployment Rate t-1 Requirement: a. Hiroshi had budgeted $620 toward advertising costs in May 2009. Make a forecast in June2009, if the unemployment rate in May 2009 was 9.1%b.
