Q#1 A market research team has taken random samples of male and females employees
working in telecom sector. The samples yielded the following data sets on gender wise
salaries of the employees ( in thousands of dollars/year)

Male: 32 37 36 32 51 76 37 42 40 32 62 43 42 44 41 55 39 48 47 60

Female: 41 21 61 38 41 26 61 60 34 24 30 37 31 27 39 34 33 34 34 35

a) What is the variable of interest

b) Compute the descriptive statistics and interpret the results

Q#4 Research objective: To see whether advertising frequency (X1) and the # of sales
persons (X2) affect the sales(Y)

a) Identify dependent and independent variables

b) Name the model and develop the relationship which explain the affect of sale
on advertising frequency
c) Interpret the results.

Firm A Firm B

No of wage earners 586 648

Average monthly wage 52.60 47.50

Variance of wages 100 121

(i) Which firm pays the larger amount of the monthly wages?
(ii) In which firm A or B is there greater variability?

Suppose that you have carried out a regression analysis where the total variation (SST)
in the response is 133452 and the R-square was 0.7225. find the error sums of squares
(SSE)
A regression between foot length (response variable in cm) and height (explanatory
variable in inches) for 33 students resulted in the following regression equation: yˆ =
10.9 + 0.23 x .

a) One student in the sample was 73 inches tall with a foot length of 29 cm.
b) What is the predicted foot length for this student? One student in the sample was
73 inches tall with a foot length of 29 cm. What is the residual for this student?
c) What is the estimated average foot length for students who are 70 inches tall?
