10. Your lab partner decides to incorrectly compute the estimate of the slope parameter for the least-squares line as follows: S a. , SS. +*. The problem with such a computation is that: a) it will maximize squared error instead of minimize it b) it will likely not provide a good estimate for the intercept of the equation c) it will not result in the slope for the least-squares line d) it will be undefined since the denominator will equal 0 e) none of the above

We use the form ŷ = a + bx for the least-squares line. In some computer printouts, the least-squares equation is not given directly. Instead, the value of the constant a is given, and the coefficient b of the explanatory or predictor variable is displayed. Sometimes a is referred to as the constant, and sometimes as the intercept. Data from a report showed the following relationship between elevation (in thousands of feet) and average number of frost-free days per year in a state. A Minitab printout provides the following information. Predictor Coef SE Coef T P Constant 315.27 28.31 11.24 0.002 Elevation -31.812 3.511 -8.79 0.003 S = 11.8603 R-Sq = 96.8% Notice that "Elevation" is listed under "Predictor." This means that elevation is the explanatory variable x. Its coefficient is the slope b. "Constant" refers to a in the equation ŷ = a + bx. (a) Use the printout to write the least-squares equation. ŷ = + x (b) For each 1000-foot increase in elevation,…

Suppose I have run the simple linear reggression model through R code based on Data file(name is DATA) which has 30 line data. Now I need plot and run the simple linear reggression model through R code based on same Data file with only 1 to 20 lines data. If I wrote the code : Data2=[1:20], then use plot(), lm(), fit() commands. cant work it How to write the R code for the second simple linear reggression mode ? thanks for your help.
