MS Module 16: Regression estimates – homework assignment

(The attached PDF file has better formatting.)

Homework assignment:

Solve one of the following end of chapter problems, showing all work. The numerical answers are in the appendix to the textbook; for the homework assignment, show how the answer is derived.

●    Problem 13 (a), (b), (c), and (d) on page 623 (1st ed) / page 637 (2nd ed).
    ○    Part (a) derives the estimated least squares equation; show how to derive β0 and β1
    ○    Part (b) uses the estimates from Part (a) to derive the fitted value and the residual.
    ○    Part (c) computes SSE; divide by the degrees of freedom to estimate σ2 and σ.
    ○    Part (d) uses the complement of the ratio of SSE to SST.
●    Problem 17 (b), (c), (d), and (e) on page 624 (1st ed) / page 638 (2nd ed).
    ○    Part (b): show how to derive β0 and β1
    ○    Part (c) uses the estimates from Part (a) to derive the fitted value.
    ○    Part (d): show how to derive SSE, then σ2, then σ.
    ○    Part (d) uses the complement of the ratio of SSE to SST.
