38. The least-squares regression method can be used to
approximate a cost function. A disadvantage of this method is
________.
A) it requires a lot of prior cost data
B) it does not use all the available data points
C) it requires subjective placement of the line
D) it is more subjective than engineering analysis
Answer: A
Diff: 2
LO: 3-4
AACSB: Reflective thinking skills
Learning Outcome: Discuss and use various methods to estimate the

What are Least Squares Assumptions for simple linear regression?
For each least
squares assumption, provide an example in which the assumption is
valid, then provide
an example in which the assumption fails.
What is the main advantage(s) of quantile regression? How does
quantile regression differ from least-squares regression (linear
regression)? Illustrate your answer with an example.
(a) Find the least-squares
regression
line treating number of absences as the explanatory variable and
the final exam score as the response variable.

a) What is the difference between regression and
interpolation?
b) Use least squares regression to fit a straight line to the data
given in Table 1 and
calculate the y value corresponding x=3.
c) Find the Lagrange interpolating polynomial using the data given
in Table 1 and
calculate the y value corresponding x=3.
