QUESTION

An engineer studied the effect of four variables on a dimensionless factor used

to describe pressure drops in a screen-plate bubble column.
1. Fit a multiple linear regression model relating this dimensionless number
to these regressors.
2. Test for significance of regression. What conclusions can you draw?
3. Use t tests to assess the contribution of each regressor to the model. Dis-
cuss your findings .
4. Calculate R2 and RAdj
2
for this model. Compare these values to the R2 and
2
RAdj for the multiple linear regression model relating the dimensionless
number to x2 and x3 . Discuss your results.
5. Find a 99% CI for the regression coeffcient for x2 for both models in the
above part . Discuss any differences.
6. Construct a normal probability plot of the residuals. Does there seem to
be any problem with the normality assumption?
7. Construct and interpret a plot of the residuals versus the predicted re-
sponse.
8. Construct the partial regression plots for this model. Does it seem that
variables currently in the model are not necessary?
9. Compute the studentized residuals and the R - student residuals for this
model. What information is conveyed by these scaled residuals?

1
10. Identify the most appropriate transformation for these data. Fit this
model and repeat the residual analysis.
11. Use the all - possible - regressions method to find the “ best ” set of
regressors.

12. Use stepwise regression to select a subset regression model. Does this
model agree with the one found in the above part?
13. Analyze the Pressure drop data for multicollinearity. Use the variance
inflation factors and the condition number of X ′ X .

14. Is multicollinearity a potential problem in this model?
