    This article considers the relationship between two variables in two ways: (1) by using regression analysis and (2) by computing the correlation coefficient. By using the regression model‚ we can evaluate the magnitude of change in one variable due to a certain change in another variable. For example‚ an economist can estimate the amount of change in food expenditure due to a certain change in the income of a household by using the regression model. A sociologist may want to estimate the increase

    Linear Regression & Best Line Analysis Linear regression is used to make predictions about a single value. Linear regression involves discovering the equation for a line that most nearly fits the given data. That linear equation is then used to predict values for the data. A popular method of using the Linear Regression is to construct Linear Regression Channel lines. Developed by Gilbert Raff‚ the channel is constructed by plotting two parallel‚ middle lines above and below a Linear Regression

    Problem 12)‚ 28‚ 30. Please use Excel solver function. I posted an annotated solution to Problem 2-5.  This problem is an examplar for both the chapter 2 and 3 problems.  In this example I show how I typically set up a problem.  First I set up the linear programming model and then develop a parallel set-up to use as input to the Solver add-in.  I use this strategy because I first like to set up the problem solution before I worry about setting up the parameters for using Solver.  24.

    The linear probability model‚ ctd. When Y is binary‚ the linear regression model Yi = β0 + β1Xi + ui is called the linear probability model. • The predicted value is a probability: • E(Y|X=x) = Pr(Y=1|X=x) = prob. that Y = 1 given x • Yˆ = the predicted probability that Yi = 1‚ given X • β1 = change in probability that Y = 1 for a given ∆x: Pr(Y = 1 | X = x + ∆x ) − Pr(Y = 1 | X = x ) β1 = ∆x 5 Example: linear probability model‚ HMDA data Mortgage denial v. ratio of debt payments to income (P/I

    LINEAR REGRESSION MODELS W4315 HOMEWORK 2 ANSWERS February 15‚ 2010 Instructor: Frank Wood 1. (20 points) In the file ”problem1.txt”(accessible on professor’s website)‚ there are 500 pairs of data‚ where the first column is X and the second column is Y. The regression model is Y = β0 + β1 X + a. Draw 20 pairs of data randomly from this population of size 500. Use MATLAB to run a regression model specified as above and keep record of the estimations of both β0 and β1 . Do this 200 times. Thus you
