Accepted Answer

$$\hat{y} = 495.22 + 4.13 	imes 350 = 1,940.72$$

Question 12

In a regression ANOVA table, if the regression sum of squares (SSR) is $$15,716$$ and the residual sum of squares (SSE) is $$37,178$$, what is the total sum of squares (SST)?

Accepted Answer

$$SST = SSR + SSE = 15,716 + 37,178 = 52,894$$

Question 13

A regression model with $$n = 34$$ and $$1$$ independent variable has $$SSE = 37,178. $$What are the degrees of freedom for the residuals?

Accepted Answer

$$df_{residual} = n - 2 = 32$$

If the mean square for regression (MSR) is $$15,716$$ and the mean square for error (MSE) is $$1,162.44$$, what is the $$F$$ statistic for the regression?

Accepted Answer

$$F = \frac{MSR}{MSE} = \frac{15,716}{1,162.44} = 13.52$$

Question 16

A researcher wants to predict the selling price of a home using square footage. The regression equation is $$\hat{y} = 50,000 + 200x$$, where $$x is $$the square footage. What is the predicted price for a 2,000 square foot home?

Accepted Answer

$$\hat{y} = 50,000 + 200 	imes 2,000 = 450,000$$

Question 17

Which of the following best describes the interpretation of the coefficient of determination ($$r^2) in $$regression analysis?

Accepted Answer

$$r^2$$ represents the proportion of the variance in the dependent variable explained by the independent variable(s).

Question 18

If a regression model has $$r^2 = 0.71$, what does this imply about the model's explanatory power?
