Regression analysis was applied between $ sales (y) and $ advertising (x) across all the branches of a major international corporation. The following regression function was obtained. ý: - 5000 + 7.25x If the advertising budgets of two branches of the corporation differ by $20,000, then what will be the predicted difference in their sales? O $217,500 $222,500 O $145000 O none of the above
A statistical program is recommended. The owner of Showtime Movie Theaters, Inc., would like to predict weekly gross revenue as a function of advertising expenditures. Historical data for a sample of eight weeks follow. Weekly Television Gross Newspaper Advertising Advertising ($1,000s) ($1,000s) Revenue ($1,000s) 96 5.0 1.5 90 2.0 2.0 95 4.0 1.5 92 2.5 2.5 95 3.0 3.3 94 3.5 2.3 94 2.5 4.2 94 3.0 2.5 1 (a) Develop an estimated regression equation with the amount of television advertising as the independent variable. (Round your numerical values to two decimal places. Let x₁ represent the amount of television advertising in $1,000s and y represent the weekly gross revenue in $1,000s.) y = 88.64 + 1.60x1 X (b) Develop an estimated regression equation with both television advertising and newspaper advertising as the independent variables. (Round your numerical values to two decimal places. Let x₁ represent the amount of television advertising in $1,000s, x₂ represent the amount of…
Choose the correct answer of each number. 1. An analyst hired by the multinational company to study the sales data of its more than 75 stores worldwide. Used regression analysis to predict $ sales (y) by using $ advertising (x1) and $ salary of sales representatives (x2) across all the branches. You obtained the following regression function: y = 7800 + 8.5x1-1.6x2. If the advertising budgets of one of the branches of the corporation is now $45,000 (which is 10% more than before) and the salary of sales representatives is now $8,500 (which is 20% less than before), then the predicted sales before in that branch is a. $417,750 b. $341,250 c. $376,700 d. $335,6502.

Use Excel to Run the Regressions:1. Wage and Age: Do you think a worker’s wage is related to his/her age? It is expected that wagesincrease with age up to certain age, after that wages go down. The “Wage Quadratic Data” fileposted contains data on the hourly wage (in $) for construction workers, workers’ ageand whether the worker has a bachelor’s degree or not (Graduate equals 1 if the worker has abachelor’s degree and 0 otherwise). Use the data file to answer the following questions:A) Build a model to predict the hourly wage of construction workers based on their education andage.B) Use the model to predict the hourly wage for a college graduate construction worker if his/herage is 30, 50, and 70c) Based on your model, calculate the age at which the hourly wage for construction workers ismaximized.
