The Simple Linear Regression model is

 

Y = b0 + b1*X1 + u

 

and the Multiple Linear Regression model with k variables is:

 

Y = b0 + b1*X1 + b2*X2 + ... + bk*Xk + u

 

Y is the dependent variable, the X1, X2, ..., Xk are the explanatory variables, b0 is the intercept, b1, b2, ..., bk are the slope coefficients, and u is the error term,

 

Yhat represents the OLS fitted values, uhat represent the OLS residuals, b0_hat represents the OLS estimated intercept, and b1_hat, b2_hat,..., bk_hat, represent the OLS estimated slope coefficients.

QUESTION 19

Y_hat = 11 - 0.4*X + 0.01*X2

According to this estimated model, what is the value of X that minimizes Y_hat?

 

  1. It is equal to -20
  2. It is equal to -40
  3. It is equal to 20
  4. It is equal to 40

 

 

QUESTION 20

Suppose your estimated MLR model with two explanatory variables, log(X1) and X2, is:

Y_hat= 10 – 10*log(X1) + 0.04*X2

Which of the following statements about the interpretation of the coefficient of log(X1) is correct?

 

  1. If X1 increases by 2%, Y is predicted to decrease by approximately 0.20 units, holding X2 constant
  2. If X1 increases by 2%, Y is predicted to decrease by approximately 20 units, holding X2 constant
  3. If X1 increases by 2 units, Y is predicted to decrease by approximately 20 units, holding X2 constant
  4. If X1 increases by 2 units, Y is predicted to decrease by approximately 20%, holding X2 constant

 

 

QUESTION 21

Suppose your estimated MLR model is:

Y_hat = 11 + 0.6*X - 0.01*X2

If X increases by 1 unit from X=60, what will the approximate change in Y_hat be?

 

  1. the change will be approximately equal to 0.
  2. an increase of about 34.8 units
  3. an increase of about 0.59 units
  4. a decrease of about 0.6 units

could you help with these too please, the simple linear regression and multiple linear regression are all the same.

QUESTION 5

In the SLR model, suppose the explanatory variable (X1) represents how much a school spends per student (in £1000), and the dependent variable (Y) represents the average test score (in percent) in a standardised test in that school. Suppose you collect a sample of different schools and estimate this model by OLS. Then the estimated intercept b0_hat, represents:

 

  1. by how much the average test score (in percent) is predicted to change, if spending per student in a school increases by £1000
  2. The predicted spending per student for a school, if the average test score in that school is equal to 0%
  3. the predicted average test score (in percent), for a school that spends £0 per student
  4. the predicted average test score (in percent) in a school, irrespective of the spending per student in that school
