when a regression is used as a method of predicting dependent variables from one or more independent variables. How are the independent variables different from each other yet related to the dependent variable?
For ease of performing the next task, move the variable "Social Networks - Facebook, Twitter, etc" to column A on the spreadsheet. (i.e. Make sure it is the first column in the spreadsheet.)
The hiring managers recognize that the funding for one employment source depends on the funding for the other sources. Therefore, they want you to perform a multiple regression predicting Social Network funding from Months 1-12, while controlling for the funding of Billboard, Careerbuilder, Company Intranet - Partner, and Diversity Job Fair.
Assume that we know the funding for the the controlled variables for Month 13. They are:
Billboard: 520
Careerbuilder: 800
Company Intranet: 0
Diversity Job Fair: 1000
For this model and these known values, what is the predicted value for Social Network funding for Month 13?
A social scientist collects information about counties in California and finds that the correlation between average income of the county and a rating of healthcare quality in the county is 0.78. A scatterplot of the two variables is football shaped.
A particular county has an average income that is 0.4 SDs above the average of all counties.
Using regression, we would predict that its healthcare quality is _________ SDs above the average healthcare quality for all counties, and that it is therefore at the _________ percentile of healthcare quality among all counties.
Choose the answer below to fill in the two blanks.

- Olympic Pole Vault The graph in Figure 7 indicates that in recent years the winning Olympic men’s pole vault height has fallen below the value predicted by the regression line in Example 2. This might have occurred because when the pole vault was a new event there was much room for improvement in vaulters’ performances, whereas now even the best training can produce only incremental advances. Let’s see whether concentrating on more recent results gives a better predictor of future records. (a) Use the data in Table 2 (page 176) to complete the table of winning pole vault heights shown in the margin. (Note that we are using x=0 to correspond to the year 1972, where this restricted data set begins.) (b) Find the regression line for the data in part ‚(a). (c) Plot the data and the regression line on the same axes. Does the regression line seem to provide a good model for the data? (d) What does the regression line predict as the winning pole vault height for the 2012 Olympics? Compare this predicted value to the actual 2012 winning height of 5.97 m, as described on page 177. Has this new regression line provided a better prediction than the line in Example 2?arrow_forwardWhat does the y -intercept on the graph of a logistic equation correspond to for a population modeled by that equation?arrow_forwardBill wants to explore factors affecting work stress. He would like to examine the relationship between age, number of years at the workplace, perceived social support, and work stress. He collects data on the variables from 100 employees (males and females) working in banks.

- A regression equation is obtained for a set of data. After examining a scatter diagram, the researcher notices a data point that is potentially an influential point. How could she confirm that this data point is indeed an influential point?arrow_forwardThe St. Lucian Government is interested in predicting the number of weekly riders on the public buses using the following variables: • • • • Price of bus trips per weekThe population in the cityThe monthly income of ridersAverage rate to park your personal vehicle Determine the multiple regression equation for the data. What is the predicted value of the number of weekly riders if: price of bus trips per week = $24; population = $2,000,000; the monthly income of riders = $13,500; and average rate to park your personal vehicle = $150. Interpret the coefficient of determination.arrow_forwardForensic scientists can learn about events at a crime scene by collecting data. Ex: Properties of glass shards at a crime scene such as chemical composition can indicate what type of glass was broken at the scene. Possible types include building glass (building windows or doors), vehicle glass (car windows or doors), or household glass (lightbulbs, baking dishes). The fitted logistic regression model for predicting whether a glass shard is building glass based on sodium is: = 20.02+(-1.42) (sodium) 1+e20.02+(-1.42) (sodium) Calculate the log-odds that a glass shard with sodium = 13.08 is building glass. Ex: 1.23 C Calculate the probability that a glass shard with sodium = 13.08 is building glass.arrow_forward
