If MSE is known. you can compute the
a. r square
b. coefficient of determination
c. standard error
d. all of these alternatives are correet
A 3. In regression analysis, which of the following is not a required assumption about the error tern €?
a. The expected value of the error term is one.
b. The variance of the error term is the same for all values of X
ce. The values of the error term are independent,
d. The error term is normally distributed.
A 4. In regression analysis, the variable that is being predicted is the
a. dependent variable
b. independent variable
¢. intervening variable
d. is usually x
Ihe equation that describes how the dependent variable (y) is related to the independent variable (x) is called
a. the correlation model
b, the regression model

A repression analysis between demand (Y in 1000 units) and price (X in dollars) resulted in the following
equation
Y=9-3X
The above equation implies that if the price is increased by $1, the demand is expected to
a. inercase by 6 units
b. deerease by 3 units
c. decrease by 6,000 units
d. decrease by 3.000 units
If the coefficient of determination is 0.9, the percentage of variation in the dependent variable explained by
the variation in the independent variable
a. is 090%
b. is 90%,
cis 0.81%
d. can be any positive valuc

of gasoline in highway driving, The company has developed a more efficient engine for its small cars and
now advertises that its new small cars average more than 50 miles per gallon in highway driving. An
independent testing service road-tested 64 of the automobiles, The sample showed an average of 51.5 miles
per gallon with a sample standard deviation of 4 miles per gallon.
