- A car dealer believes that average daily sales for four
different dealerships in four separate states are equal. A random
sample of days results in the following data on daily sales:
 
Ohio               
New York       West
Virginia             
Pennsylvania

Use ANOVA to test this claim at the
0.05 level.
- Use Excel to support your answers to Question 1. Submit your
completed Excel spreadsheet.
 
- Suppose we have the following data on variable X (independent)
and variable Y (dependent):
 
X         Y
2          70
0          70
4          130
- By hand, determine the simple regression equation relating Y
and X.
 
- Calculate the R-Square measure and interpret the result.
 
- Calculate the adjusted R-Square.
 
- Test to see whether X and Y are significantly related using a
test on the population correlation. Test this at the 0.05
level.
 
- Test to see whether X and Y are significantly related using a
t-test on the slope of X. Test this at the 0.05 level.
 
- Test to see whether X and Y are significantly related using an
F-test on the slope of X. Test this at the 0.05 level.
 
- Suppose we have the following values for a dependent variable,
Y, and three independent variables, X1, X2, and X3. The variable X3
is a dummy variable where 1 = male and 2 = female:
 
X1

- Run the multiple regression in Excel and provide the resulting
multiple regression equation.
 
- Provide the R-Square measure. Is this a good regression model?
Explain. Use a level of significance of 0.05 in any tests you
consider.
 
- Which variables are important in explaining Y when the level of
significance is 0.05? Is the dummy variable important at this level
of significance? Discuss what the coefficients mean regarding the
effect of each variable on Y.
 
- Suppose a female with X1 = 5 and X2 = 80 is selecte What would
be her predicted value of Y?
 
- What types of problems might exist in this multiple
regression?
