You are the owner of a restaurant located in a beach resort in Hawaii and want to use regression analysis to estimate the demand for your fresh seafood dinners. You have collected data on the daily quantity of seafood dinners sold over the last summer season. In order to correctly specify your regression equation, which of the following variables should be considered? Select one: A. the prices charged for souvenirs in local stores B. the prices charged for scuba diving excursions at the resort C. the wages paid to your chef and servers D. the daily number of vacationers at the resort
Imagine you are an economist working for the Government of Econville. You are tasked with developing a model to predict the GDP of the country based on various factors such as interest rates, inflation, unemployment rate, and population growth. You collect quarterly data for the past 20 years and start building your model. After running your initial regression, you notice some peculiar patterns in the residuals: (1) residuals do not have identical variances across different levels of the independent variables; (2) two or more independent variables in a regression model are highly correlated with each other; (3) the correlation of a variable with its own past values. You suspect that your model might be suffering from 3 potential issues in the regression analysis that can affect reliability and validity. List 2 factors in your model that might be causing the Multicollinearity and give a reason
The data for this question is given in the file 1.Q1.xlsx(see image) and it refers to data for some cities X1 = total overall reported crime rate per 1 million residents X3 = annual police funding in $/resident X7 = % of people 25 years+ with at least 4 years of college (a) Estimate a regression with X1 as the dependent variable and X3 and X7 as the independent variables. (b) Will additional education help to reduce total overall crime (lead to a statistically significant reduction in crime)? Please explain. (c) Will an increase in funding for the police departments help reduce total overall crime (lead to a statistically significant reduction in total overall crime)? Please explain. (d) If you were asked to recommend a policy to reduce crime, then, based only on the above regression results, would you choose to invest in education (local schools) or in additional funding for the police? Please explain.
Having successfully completed your first year in university, you began your second year with an evaluation of your past performance. You observed that you performed well in those subjects where you were diligent with class attendance whilst you performed poorly in those courses where you missed a number of classes. Upon learning about OLS regression you realize that you are able to predict your average performance based on the number of classes attended. The table below shows your data set. Number of Lectures (X) Percentage Scored (Y) 1 30 2 45 3 51 4 57 5 60 6 65 7 70 8 71 9 72 10 73 11 66 12 71 13 47 14 81 15 83 16 84 17 89 18 99 19 82 20 86

In a regression problem with one output variable and one input variable, we set up two cutpoints z1 and z2 for the input variable and we fit a step function regression model based on these two cutpoints of the input variable. If you write the regression problem in matrix form y = X%*%β + ε, how many rows would the vector β have?
