Select each of the true statements below concerning residuals and error terms in a simple regression. No partial credit. A. The error term is the vertical distance from a data point to the true line. B. A residual is the vertical distance from a data point to the fitted line. |C. In OLS, regression coefficients are selected to minimize the sum of squared error terms. D. The sum of squared residuals, when divided by n-k-1, provides our estimated variance of the error term E. The error term can be thought of as an estimated residual.

please use chart attatched. a. Explain the meaning of the slope of the regression line in this context. b. What is the predicted cost of maintenance for someone who racks up about 2,000 miles per month on a sedan? c. Suppose one of the observations used to get the data table above was a sedan owner who reported he drove 980 miles this month and spent about $450 on maintenance costs in the same month. What is the residual of this observation?
A vocational counselor uses the number of days without employment to predict her clients' feelings of self efficacy, measured on a scale of 1 to 5, with higher numbers meaning that clients feel more secure in their job related abilities. The slope of the regression line is –1.02. Which statement is the best interpretation for this finding? a. For every 1-point increase in self-efficacy, there is an associated decrease in the number of days of unemployment. b. For every additional day of unemployment, there is an associated decrease in self-efficacy of 1.02 points. c. The least number of days a person can be unemployed and still feel self-efficacious is 3.98 points d. The decrease in self-efficacy of 1.02 points is caused by each additional day of unemployment

Personal wealth tends to increase with age as older individuals have had more opportunitiesto earn and invest than younger individuals. The following data were obtained from a randomsample of eight individuals and records their total wealth (Y) and their current age (X). See attachment for table with figures State the estimated regression line and interpret the slope coefficient.b. What is the estimated total personal wealth when a person is 50 years old?c. What is the value of the coefficient of determination? Interpret it.d. Test whether there is a significant relationship between wealth and age at the 10%significance level. Perform the test using the following six steps.Step 1. Statement of the hypotheses Step 2. Standardised test statistic Step 3. Level of significance Step 4. Decision Rule
