Question

solution steps In aa simple linear regression Problem, the following sum of squares are produced: sigma (y -y)^t = 200 sigma(y-y)^t = 50 and sigma(y -y)^t = 150. The percentage of the variation in y that is explained by the variation in x is; a. 25% b. 75% c. 33% d. 50% Given that the sum of squares for error is 60 and the sum of squares for regression is 140. then the coefficient of determination is: a. 0429 b. 0.300 C. 0.700 d. None of these choices. A regression line using 25 observations produced SSR = 118 68 and SSE = 56.32. The standard error of estimate was: a. 2.11 b. 1.56 c. 2.44 d. None of these choices. Given the least squares regression line y = 2 48 - 1 63x. and a coefficient of determination of 0.81, the coefficient of correlation is: a. -0.66 b. 0.81 C. -0.90 d. 0.90

Explanation / Answer

12) required answer is SSR/SST = 150/200 = 0.75 = 75 %

13) coefficient of determination = SSR /SST

SST = SSR +SSE

SSr = 140 ,SSe = 60

hence 140/(140+60) = 140/200 = 0.7

14)    = SSE/(n 2) = sqrt(56.32/23) = 1.56483

15)

coefficient of corelation = i* sqrt(coefficient of determination) =i* sqrt(0.81) =i* 0.90 ,

where i is +1 or -1

since coefficient of x is negative , i = -1

hence -0.90
