Part I. Run two regressions in Excel using the provided Excel file “Layoffs”.The Excel file Layoffs provides data on 50 manufacturing workers who lost their jobs due to layoffs. The
data includes the following list of variables:Weeks – the number of weeks a manufacturing worker has been without a jobAge – the age of the workerEducation – the number of years of education of the workerMarried – a dummy variable, equal to 1 if the worker is married, 0 otherwiseHead – a dummy variable, equal to 1 if the worker is a head of household, 0 otherwiseTenure – the number of years on the previous jobManager – a dummy variable, equal to 1 if the worker had a management occupation, 0 otherwise Sales – a dummy variable, equal to 1 if the worker had an occupation in sales, 0 otherwise
1. Run a simple regression with a dependent variable Weeks and an independent variable Age. Create the regular and standardized residual plots for the simple regression.
2. Run a multiple regression with a dependent…

The county assessor is studying housing demand and is interested in developing a regression model to estimate the market value (i.e., selling price) of
residential property within her jurisdiction. The assessor suspects that the most important variable affecting selling price (measured in thousands of
dollars) is the size of house (measured in hundreds of square feet). She randomly selects 15 houses and measures both the selling price and size, as
shown in the following table.
Complete the table and then use it to determine the estimated regression line.

Explain how you chose this variable.arrow_forwardA statistical program is recommended. Car manufacturers produced a variety of classic cars that continue to increase in value. Suppose the following data is based upon the Martin Rating System for Collectible Cars, and shows the rarity rating (1–20) and the high price ($1,000) for 15 classic cars. (b) Develop an estimated multiple regression equation with x = rarity rating and x2 as the two independent variables. (Round b0 and b1 to the nearest integer and b2 to one decimal place.)
