The owner of a restaurant in Bloomington, Indiana, has recorded sales data for the past 19 years. He has also recorded data on potentially relevant variables. The data are listed in the file P13_17.xlsx. a. Estimate a simple regression equation involving annual sales (the dependent variable) and the size of the population residing within 10 miles of the restaurant (the explanatory variable). Interpret R-square for this regression. b. Add another explanatory variableannual advertising expendituresto the regression equation in part a. Estimate and interpret this expanded equation. How does the R-square value for this multiple regression equation compare to that of the simple regression equation estimated in part a? Explain any difference between the two R-square values. How can you use the adjusted R-squares for a comparison of the two equations? c. Add one more explanatory variable to the multiple regression equation estimated in part b. In particular, estimate and interpret the coefficients of a multiple regression equation that includes the previous years advertising expenditure. How does the inclusion of this third explanatory variable affect the R-square, compared to the corresponding values for the equation of part b? Explain any changes in this value. What does the adjusted R-square for the new equation tell you?

A well-known multinational FMCG produces more than fifty products and sells them in the market. Out of fifty products one is mineral water for drinking purpose and supplies different size pack bottles in the market. Product manager observed that, during hot days the sale of water is more as compared to the normal days. He started the collection of data of weekly sale of water and the average weekly temperature. Product manager was interested in developing a relationship between sales and temperature; therefore, he discussed and shared the following data with you

Bo Using data from 50 workers, a researcher estimates Wage = ẞe + B₁Education + B2Experience + B3Age + ε, where Wage is the hourly wage rate and Education, Experience, and Age are the years of higher education, the years of experience, and the age of the worker, respectively. A portion of the regression results is shown in the following table. Intercept Education Experience Age Coefficients Standard Error t Stat p-Value 7.17 4.26 1.68 0.0991 1.81 0.35 5.17 0.0000 0.45 0.10 4.50 0.0000 -0.01 0.06 -0.17 0.8684 a-1.

The instructor has provided information about the first test grades in some previous classes, as well as the final averages for the same students.

Give the values of r and r2 for this model. Interpret the value of r² in the context of this problem.
ic 2-Time Series Analysis and F eBook Problem 6-21 (Algorithmic) The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Office on Smoking and Health (OSH) is the lead federal agency responsible for comprehensive tobacco prevention and control. OSH was established in 1965 to reduce the death and disease caused by tobacco use and exposure to secondhand smoke. One of the many responsibilities of the OSH is to collect data on tobacco use. The following data show the percentage of U.S. adults who were users of tobacco for a recent 11-year period (http://www.cdc.gov/tobacco/data_statistics/tables/trends/cig_smoking/index.htm).
