Cost accountants often estimate overhead based on the level of production. At the XYZ Company, they have collected information on overhead expenses and units produced at different plants and want to estimate a regression equation to predict future overhead. The data is available as given in the table below. Develop the regression equation for the cost accountants using Least Square Method. Predict overhead when 50 units are produced.

Researchers are interested in predicting the height of a child based on the heights of their mother and father. Data were collected, which included height of the child (height ), height of the mother ( mothersheight), and height of the father (fathersheight ). The initial analysis used the heights of the parents to predict the height of the child (all units are inches). The results of the analysis, a multiple regression, are presented below. . regress height mothersheight fathersheight Source Model Residual Total height mothersheight fathersheight _cons SS df 208.008457 314.295372 37 2 104.004228 8.49446952 MS 522.303829 39 13.3924059 Coef.

A researcher is investigating possible explanations for deaths in traffic accidents. He examined data from 2000 for each of the 52 cities randomly selected in the US. The variables were death and income. Deaths: The number of deaths in traffic accidents per cityIncome: The median income per city The researcher ran a simple linear regression model: Deaths = Bo+B1(Income). Results shown in photo below. Question: Please help me better understand how to use results from photo to find value of R-squared of this simple linear regression model.
Report the equation of the regression line and interpret it in the context of the problem
Provide an example of a research project in your hometown where you would choose to use linear regression. What variable would be your Y-score, and what variable would be your X-score? What does a regression line represent? What is the standard error of estimate?
Suppose that a simple linear regression model is appropriate for describing the relationship between y = house price (in dollars) and x = house size (in square feet) for houses in a large city. The population regression line is y = 22,500 + 43x and ?e = 4,000. b) Approximately what proportion of 2,000 sq ft homes would be priced over $110,000? (You may need to use a table. Round your answer to four decimal places.) Approximately what proportion of 2,000 sq ft homes would be priced under $100,000? (You may need to use a table. Round your answer to four decimal places.)
