October 4 10
,(a)The owner wants to forecast sales based on
advertising expense, Which variable is
independent variable, and which is dependent
variable?
(b) Draw a scatter diagram?
(c) Determine regression equation? Write out the
general definition of the equation of the regression
line. (d) Estimate sales when $3 million is spent on
advertising? Estimate sales when $7 million is spent
on advertising?
(e) Determine the standard error of the estimate. What
does it mean?
(f) The regression was found in step part C and
standard error of the estimate was found in part e. Both
variables are reported in millions of dollars, Determine
the 90% confidence interval for the typical month in
which $3 million was spent on advertising.
(g) Determine the correlation coefficient. What does it
mean to you?
(h) Interpret the correlation coefficient. What does it
mean to you?
(i) Determine the coefficient of determination. What
