Answer:
a)
b) The accountant should not question the voucher as the request is much higher than expected.
c) We can add the following variables
d) The percentage of variation in the trip cost that can be explained by the model = (0.64)^2 =0.4096 or 40.96%
A. Type of travel (air/car)
B. Gender of the executive (male/female)
The last option is not too important since we are analyzing the traveling executives not the type of business
Step-by-step explanation:
Part a
For this case we have the multiple regression model given by:
Where represent the number of days on the road and
the distance traveled in miles.
And we want to find the expected amount from a 340-mile trip that took her out of town for 5 days, so we just need to replace x1= 5 and x2=340 and we got:
Part b
The expected value taking in count that x1 = 5 and y = 340 is:
And the difference from the obtained value is : 685-441.50=243.5
So then the correct answer would be:
The accountant should not question the voucher as the request is much higher than expected.
Part c
We can add the following variables
A. Type of travel (air/car)
B. Gender of the executive (male/female)
The last option is not too important since we are analyzing the traveling executives not the type of business
Part d
The correlation coefficient is a "statistical measure that calculates the strength of the relationship between the relative movements of two variables". It's denoted by r and its always between -1 and 1.
The coefficient of determination "is a measure used in statistical analysis that assesses how well a model explains and predicts future outcomes. It is indicative of the level of explained variability in the data set".
The percentage of variation in the trip cost that can be explained by the model = (0.64)^2 =0.4096 or 40.96%
Answer:
Matrix multiplication is not conmutative
Step-by-step explanation:
The matrix multiplication can be performed if the number of columns of the first matrix is equal to the number of rows of the second matrix
Let A with dimension mxn and B with dimension nxp represent two matrix
The multiplication of A by B is a matrix C with dimension mxp, but the multiplication of B by A is can't be calculated because the number of columns of B is not the number of rows of A. Therefore, you can notice that is not conmutative in general.
But even if the multiplication of AB and BA is defined (For example if A and B are squared matrix of 2x2) the multiplication is not necessary conmutative.
The matrix multiplication result is a matrix which entries are given by dot product of the corresponding row of the first matrix and the corresponding column of the second matrix:
Notice that in general, the result is not the same. It could be the same for very specific values of the elements of each matrix.
