I. PROGRAM OUTCOME/S (PO) ADDRESSED BY THE LABORATORY EXERCISE
 Apply knowledge of computing appropriate to the discipline. [PO: A]
 Analyze a complex problem and identify and define the computing requirements appropriate to its solution
[PO: B]

II. COURSE LEARNING OUTCOME/S (CLO) ADDRESSED BY THE LABORATORY EXERCISE

 Participate actively in business discussions with various departments and create common reports or specific
unique reports with regard to predictive and prescriptive analytics [CLO: 3]

III. INTENDED LEARNING OUTCOME/S (ILO) OF THE LABORATORY EXERCISE

At the end of this exercise, students must be able to:
 Recognize the which among the independent variables are significant to the dependent variable
 Differentiate the applications of the various regression analysis
 Perform regression analysis in identifying the relationship between the target variable and the
predictors
 Integrate the concept of regression analysis in predicting future outcomes

IV. BACKGROUND INFORMATION

In order to accomplish this task, the student must have a clear understanding of the following topics:
 Descriptive Analysis
 Regression Analysis

Regression Analysis
The relationship between the response variable and the predictor variable can be characterized by the
equation Y=b0+b1X+
where
Y is the response variable.
X is the predictor variable.
b0 is the intercept parameter, which corresponds to the value of the response variable
when the predictor is 0.
b1 is the slope parameter, which corresponds to the magnitude of change in the response
variable given a one unit change in the predictor variable.
 is the error term representing deviations of Y about b0+b1X.

 This dataset is all about the lung cancer that the patients are diagnosed and died from the low
income groups of citizens. The places are in the states of the America only. I used the
technique Linear Regression for this data set. The purpose of this data is to define whether
the citizen in the states of America is affected to have this kind of cancer illness that
correlates with their status in terms of socioeconomic. I only limit the data set into 51 raw
data with 1 parameter. This linear regression is only for the fit diagnostic of average on the
deaths per year. I noticed that in this group of dataset, it is right skewed in the residual and in
the middle of 40 and 60 percent. In the predicted value, its 0 and the residual are also 0 in the
plots. Its mean error squared is 4.86 so the data sets have values that needed to define to
successfully know that the lung cancer and the socioeconomic status have relationship with
each other.

VII. QUESTION AND ANSWER

Briefly answer the questions below. Avoid erasures. For group activity, specify the name of GROUP
MEMBER/s who answered the question. Do not forget to include the source for all NON-ORIGINAL
IDEAS.

 When do you use linear regression analysis?

To describe the connections between a group of independent variables and the dependent
variable, use regression analysis. Regression analysis generates a regression equation, the
coefficients of which indicate the connection between each independent variable and the
dependent variable. The equation can also be used to make predictions.
 When do you use logistic regression analysis?
When the dependent variable is dichotomous, the suitable regression methodology is
logistic regression (binary). The logistic regression, like other regression studies, is a
predictive analysis. Logistic regression is a statistical analytical method that is used to

 define and explain the connection between one dependent binary variable and one or
more nominal, ordinal, interval, or ratio-level independent variables.

 Paste here the final model of you generated through regression analysis.
