Question

     Multiple regression analysis was used to study how an individual's income (Y in thousands of dollars) is influenced by age (X1 in years), level of education (X2 ranging from 1 to 5), and the person's gender (X3 where 1 =female and 0=male). The following is a partial result of a computer program that was used on a sample of 30 individuals.

 

                                 Coefficient        Standard Error

                 X1                0.63                         0.094

                 X2                0.94                         0.190

                 X3                0.52                         0.120

 

            Analysis of Variance

            Source of              Degrees             Sum of            Mean

            Variation            of Freedom         Squares          Square             F

            Regression                                            90

            Error                                                   100

  1. Use the above results and write the regression equation that can be used to predict income.
  2. If the individual is 45 years old, level of education is 4, and the person ‘s gender is male ,what is your estimate of income ?  Give your answer in dollars.
  3. Compute the coefficient of determination and interpret its meaning.
  4. Compute the adjusted coefficient of determination and explain the difference  if any between R² and R²ad .
  5. Perform a t test and determine whether or not the coefficients of regressions  are significantly different from zero.  Let a = 0.05.
  6. At a = 0.05, perform an F test and determine whether or not the regression model is significant.
  7. Fully interpret the meaning of the  coefficients of regression .
  8. Based on F-test, T-test and R²  how well this model fits to this situation
