13) Use computer software to find the multiple regression equation. Can the equation be used for prediction? An anti-smoking group used data in the table to relate the carbon monoxide( CO) of various brands of cigarettes to their tar and nicotine (NIC) content. 13).

B) CÓ = 1.37 - 5.53TAR + 1.33NIC; Yes, because the R2 is high. C) CO = 1.25 + 1.55TAR – 5.79NIC; Yes, because the P-value is too low. D) CO = 1.3 + 5.5TAR - 1.3NIC; Yes, because the adjusted R2 is high. %3D
The article "Earthmoving Productivity Estimation Using Linear Regression Techniques" (S. Smith, Journal of Construction Engineering and Management, 1999:133–141) presents the following linear model to predict earth-moving productivity (in m3 moved per hour): Productivity = - 297.877 + 84.787x, + 36.806x, + 151.680x, – 0.081x, – 110.517x5 - 0.267.x, – 0.016x,x, +0.107.x,x5 + 0.0009448x,x, – 0.244x;x, where X1 = number of trucks X2 = number of buckets per load X3 = bucket volume, in m³ X4 = haul length, in m X5 = match factor (ratio of hauling capacity to loading capacity) X6 = truck travel time, in s If the bucket volume increases by 1 m², while other independent variables are unchanged, can you determine the change in the predicted productivity? If so, determine it. If not, state what other information you would need to determine it. b. If the haul length increases by 1 m, can you determine the change in the predicted productivity? If so, determine it. If not, state what other…
a) We conduct a regression of size on hhinc, owner, hhsize, hhsize2,and hhsize3. We do not include the constant. The regression output is reported in Table 3. Would you conclude that the home size increases with the household size? Interpret the sign and magnitude of the estimated coefficients of hhsize1, hhsize2, and hhsize3.
