From the data for 46 states in the United States for 1992, Baltagi obtained the following regression results:

                                              LogC=  4.3- 1.34 log P +0.17 log Y

                                                    Se=(0.91)  (0.32)       (0.20)                                    R2=0.27

Where C= cigarette consumption, Packs per year

              P= real price per pack

              Y= real disposable income per capita

  1. What is the elasticity of demand for cigarettes with respect to price? Is it statistically significant?
  2. What is the income elasticity of demand for cigarettes? Is it statistically significant?
  3. What is the overall significance of the regression? Which test do you use?

The following table is taken from the publication 1992 Uniform Crime Reports for the United States. It gives the distribution by region for 1992 motor vehicle thefts. (A sample of 100 records was selected from each region.).Test the null hypothesis that there is no relationship between region of the country, and type of vehicle stolen. Use the .05 significance level Region Cars Other NE 85 15 Mid W 80 20 S 65 35 W 60 40

In the United States, 7.8% of the population has diabetes. The CDC compiles data from an SRS of 1200 people. a.What would be the mean number of people who have diabetes from such a sample? What would be the standard deviation? b.Use the Normal approximation to estimate the probability that at least 115 people (out of the 1200) would have diabetes?

Data from n = 113 hospitals in the United States are used to assess factors related to the likelihood that a hospital patients acquires an infection while hospitalized. The variables here are y = infection risk, x1 = average length of patient stay, x2 = average patient age, x3 = measure of how many x-rays are given in the hospital. The Minitab output is as follows: Regression Analysis: InfctRsk versus Stay, Age, Xray Analysis of Variance Source DF Adj SS...
