Consider the information above and in question 1. It is conjectured that the mean number of people attending all 2017 Veterans Day celebrations is 145, and of interest is to test this conjecture versus the alternative that the mean number of people attending all 2017 Veterans Day celebrations is different from 145 people To test the hypothesis, a simple random sample of 41 Veterans Day celebrations was selected and the number of people attending each was recorded. The mean number of people attending for this sample of 41 celebrations was 157, with a standard deviation of 23 people. The distribution of the data was bimodal. If appropriate, use this information to test the hypotheses stated in question 3 at the a= .05 level of significance. 4 Are the assumptions met? Yes, because there is a simple random sample Yes, because there is a simple random sample and the population is normally distributed Yes, because there is a simple random sample and the sample size is large enough for the…
What happens when you overfit a regression model? Question 25 options: The model captures too much of the random variation in the sample data and fails to predict accurately for the population. The p-value for the F-test of overall significance is greater than 0.05. So many variables are added to the model that the Adjusted {"version":"1.1","math":"<math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"><msup><mi>R</mi><mn>2</mn></msup></math>"} value exceeds 1 None of the relationships in the model are found to be statistically significant.

8. You extract approximately 5,000 observations from the Labour Force Survey (LFS) and estimate the following regression function: AHE,=3.32 0.45 Age, (1.0) (0.04) where AHE is average hourly earnings in pounds, Age is the individual's age and the standard errors of the estimators are given in parentheses. Given the specification, your 95% confidence interval for the effect of increasing age by 5 years is approximately: A. [£1.96, £2.54] B. [-£2.58, -£1.92] C. [-£2.64, -£1.86] D. none of the above
(a) There are many situations in which we want to compare means from populations having standard deviations that are equal. This method applies even if the standard deviations are known to be only approximately equal. Consider a report regarding average incidence of fox rabies in two regions. For region I, n, = 14, x, = 4.75, and s, = 2.84 and for region II, n2 = 13, x2 = 3.95, and sz = 2.41. The two sample standard deviations are sufficiently close that we can assume o, = 0,. Use the method of pooled standard deviation to consider the report, testing if there is a difference in population mean average incidence of rabies at the 5% level of significance. (Round your answer to three decimal places.) It =
