- Please solve 12.7 and dont use any programme like minitab.arrow_forwardYou have obtained measurements of height in inches of 29 female and 81 male students (Studenth) at your university. A regression of the height on a constant and a binary variable (BFemme), which takes a value of one for females and is zero otherwise, yields the following result: = 71.0 – 4.84×BFemme , R2 = 0.40, SER = 2.0 (0.3) (0.57) Values in parenthesis are standard errors. (a) What is the interpretation of the intercept? What is the interpretation of the coefficient of the dummy variable? How tall are females, on average? (b) Test the hypothesis that females, on average, are shorter than males, at the 1% significance level.arrow_forwardA study was conducted to see if birth weight affects the increase in weight of a newborn betweendays 70 and 100 of life. The study recorded the birth weight (in ounces) (X) for 12 newborns and thenfollowed up to record the increase in weight between days 70 and 100, and expressed it as the percentageof the birth weight (Y). The regression line between the two variables was found to beIncrease (% of birth weight) = 256.3 −1.74 × birth weight Note: The symbol above is a stretched hat symbol to indicate ˆy. (a) Is the direction of relationship between the two variables positive or negative? What does this meanin context of the problem.(b) Interpret the slope of the regression line in context of the problem.(c) Find the predicted increase in birth weight between days 70 and 100 for a baby that weighed 95ounces at birth.arrow_forward
