Post by: sosobon on Mar 3, 2018
In a simple linear regression problem including n = 10 observations, which of the following table values would be appropriate for a 95 confidence interval estimation for the average value of y?
 a. 2.228
  b. 2.262
  c. 2.306
  d. 1.860
  e. 18.60

Q. 2

Which of the following statements is false regarding the residuals in simple linear regression model?
 a. They sum to 0.
  b. They have a mean of 0.
  c. They have a standard deviation of 1.
  d. None of these.
  e. All of these.

Q. 3

In simple linear regression, the plot of residuals versus fitted values y should:
 a. be free of any patterns
  b. appear as a random scatter of points about 0 on the vertical axis
  c. approximately have the same vertical spread for all values y
  d. all of these
  e. none of these

Q. 4

In simple linear regression, the plot of residuals versus fitted values 3 can be used to check for:
 a. normality
  b. a constant variance independent of x
  c. independence
  d. all of these
  e. none of these

Q. 5

In developing a 90 confidence interval for the expected value of y from a simple linear regression problem involving a sample of size 15, the appropriate table value would be 1.761.
  Indicate whether the statement is true or false

Q. 6

The confidence interval estimate of the expected value of y will be wider than the prediction interval for the same given value of x and confidence level. This is because there is more error in estimating a mean value as opposed to predicting an individual value.
  Indicate whether the statement is true or false
