The following estimated regression equation was developed relating yearly income (y in $1000s) of 30 individuals with their age (x1) and their gender (x2) (0 if male and 1 if female). y^\hat { y } = 30 + .7x1 + 3x2 Also provided are SST = 1200 and SSE = 384.The yearly income (in $) expected of a 24-year-old male individual is

The following estimated regression equation has been proposed to predict sales at a fast food outlet. ​ y^=18−2x1+7x2+15x3\hat { y } = 18 - 2 x _ { 1 } + 7 x _ { 2 } + 15 x _ { 3 } where x1=x _ { 1 } = the number of competitors within 1 mile x2=x _ { 2 } = the population within 1 mile (in 1000 s)\left. 1000 \mathrm {~s} \right) x3=1x _ { 3 } = 1 if drive-up windows are present; 0 otherwise y^=\widehat { y } = estimated sales (( in $1000 s)\$ 1000 \mathrm {~s} ) a. What is the interpretation of 15 (the coefficient of x3) in the regression equation? b. Predict sales for an outlet with 2 competitors, a population of 10,000 within one mile, and one drive-up window (give the answer in dollars). c. Predict sales for an outlet with 2 competitors, a population of 10,000 within one mile, and no drive-up window (give the answer in dollars).

Sherri Cola Company has developed a regression model relating its sales (y in $10,000s) with four independent variables.The four independent variables are price per unit (PRICE, in dollars), competitor's price (COMPRICE, in dollars), advertising (ADV, in $1000s), and type of container used (CONTAIN; 1 = Cans and 0 = Bottles).Part of the regression results is shown below.Here, n = 25. Coefficients Stcanda Intercept 443.143 PRICE -57.170 20.426 COMPRICE 27.681 19.991 ADV 0.025 0.023 CONTAIN -95.353 91.027 ​ a. If the manufacturer uses can containers, his price is $1.25, advertising cost is $200,000, and his competitor's price is $1.50, what is your estimate of his sales? Give your answer in dollars. b. Test to see if there is a significant relationship between sales and unit price. Let α = .05. c. Test to see if there is a significant relationship between sales and advertising. Let α = .05. d. Is the type of container a significant variable? Let α = .05. e. Test to see if there is a significant relationship between sales and competitor's price. Let α = .05.
