You are considering developing a regression equation relating a dependent variable to two independent variables. One of the vari

ables can be measured on a ratio scale, but the other is a categorical variable with two possible levels.
a. How many dummy variables are needed to represent the categorical variable?
b. Write the multiple regression equation relating the dependent variable to the independent variables.
c. Interpret the meaning of the coefficients in the regression equation.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a. How many dummy variables are needed to represent the categorical variable?

We need 1 less dummy variable than outcomes for the categorical variable.

categorical variable has 2 outcomes

So, we need 2-1 = 1 dummy variable.

Answer: 1

Note: If our categorical variable had 5 outcomes, we would need 5-1 = 4 dummy variables.

b. Write the multiple regression equation relating the dependent variable to the independent variables.

Note: Depending your your professor, this can be written one of the following ways...

yhat = a + b1 x1 + bx2

yhat = b0 + b1 x1 + b2 x2

yhat = beta0hat + beta1hat x1 + betahat2 x2

where x1 is the ratio variable

and x2 is the dummy variable

c. Interpret the meaning of the coefficients in the regression equation.

b0 = the predicted value of y when x1 and x2 both equal 0.

b1 = the change in y when x1 increases by 1 unit holding x2 constant.

b2 = the predicted difference in y between the two possible outcomes of the categorical variable holding x1 constant.

Using the binomial theorem , obtain the expansion of :
andrezito [222]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Expand both factors and collect like term

Using Pascal' triangle with n = 6 to obtain the coefficients

1  6  15  20  15  6  1

Decreasing powers of 1 from 1^{6} to 1^{0}

Increasing powers of 3x from (3x)^{0} to (3x)^{6}

1+3x)^{6}

= 1.1^{6}(3x)^{0} + 6.1^{5}(3x)^{1} + 15.1^{4}(3x)^{2} + 20.1^{3}(3x)^{3} + 15.1²(3x)^{4} + 6.1^{1}(3x)^{5} + 1.1^{0}(3x)^{6}

= 1 + 18x + 135x² + 540x³ + 1215x^{4} + 1458x^{5} + 729x^{6}

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(1-3x)^{6}

= 1.1^{6}(-3x)^{0} + 6.1^{5}(-3x)^{1} + 15.1^{4}(-3x)^{2} + 20.1^{3}(-3x)^{3} + 15.1²(-3x)^{4} + 6.1^{1}(-3x)^{5} + 1.1^{0}(-3x)^{6}

= 1 - 18x + 135x² - 540x³ + 1215x^{4} - 1458x^{5} + 729x^{6}

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Collecting like terms from both expressions

(1+3x)^{6} + (1-3x)^{6}

= 2 + 270x² + 2430x^{4} + 1458x^{6}

----------------------------------------------------

(2)

Using Pascal's triangle with n = 5

1  5  10  10  5  1

Decreasing powers of 1 from 1^{5} to 1^{0}

Increasing powers of 2x from (2x)^{0} to (2x)^{5}

(1+2x)^{5}

= 1.1^{5}(2x)^{0} + 5.1^{4}(2x)^{1} + 10.1^{3}(2x)^{2} + 10.1^{2}(2x)^{3} + 5.1^{1}(2x)^{4}+ 1.1^{0}(2x)^{5}

= 1 + 10x + 40x² + 80x³ + 80x^{4} + 32x^{5}

What is the value of x
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

x =68

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles of a triangle are 180

37+75+x = 180

Combine like terms

112+x = 180

Subtract 112 from each side

112+x-112=180-112

x =68

Solve for a side in right triangles
Ket [755]

Answer:

2.33

Step-by-step explanation:

imagine a circle. its center is A, and it goes through B, so its radius is AB.

then it is important to know that the sum of all the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.

one angle (at C) is 90. the angle at B is 25. so, the angle at A is 180 - 90 - 25 = 65 degrees.

more back to our circle.

in this circle the line CB is the sine of the angle at A multiplied by the radius.

and AC is the cosine of the angle at A multiplied by the radius.

we can ignore the orientation + and - of these functions, as we are only interested in the absolute length (and we can mirror the triangle, and all the angles and side lengths still stay the same).

=> CB = sin(A)×AB

AC = cos(A)×AB

=> 5 = sin(65)×AB

=> AB = 5 / sin(65)

=> AC = cos(65)×5/sin(65) = 5 × (cos(65)/sin(65)) =

= 5 × cot(65) = 2.33
