A local store developed a multiplicative time-series model to forecast its revenues in future quarters, using quarterly data on

its revenues during the 5-year period from 2008 to 2012. The following is the resulting regression equation: log10 = 6.102 + 0.012 X - 0.129 Q1 - 0.054 Q2 + 0.098 Q3 where is the estimated number of contracts in a quarter X is the coded quarterly value with X = 0 in the first quarter of 2008 Q1 is a dummy variable equal to 1 in the first quarter of a year and 0 otherwise Q2 is a dummy variable equal to 1 in the second quarter of a year and 0 otherwise Q3 is a dummy variable equal to 1 in the third quarter of a year and 0 otherwise To obtain a fitted value for the fourth quarter of 2009 using the model, which of the following sets of values should be used in the regression equation?1. In testing the significance of the coefficient of X in the regression equation (0.012) which has a p-value of 0.02. Which of the following is the best interpretation of this result? a. The quarterly growth rate in revenues is significantly different from 0%. b. The quarterly growth rate in revenues is not significantly different from 0%. c. The quarterly growth rate in revenues is significantly different from 1.2%. d. The quarterly growth rate in revenues is not significantly different from 1.2%. e. The quarterly growth rate in revenues is significantly different from 1.2% 2. using the regression equation, the forecast for the revenues in the fourth quarter of 2004 is:______ a. 6,426 b. 2,666,858 c. 6,638 d. 2,741,574 e. 6,414

Answer:

The quarterly growth rate in revenues is significantly different from 1.2%.

b. 2,666,858

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The regression equation can be represented as :

log_{10} \hat Y= 6.102+0.012 X - 0.129 Q_1 - 0.054 Q_2 + 0.098 Q_3

In testing the significance of the coefficient of X in the regression equation (0.012) which has a p-value of 0.02.

The null and alternative hypothesis can be stated as;

H_0:    The quarterly growth rate in revenues is not significantly different from 1.2%.

H_a:   The quarterly growth rate in revenues is significantly different from 1.2%.

The decision rule is to reject the null hypothesis if the p-value is less than 0.05.

From above ; the p-value = 0.02 which is less than 0.05.

Conclusion:

Thus; we reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative hypothesis. i.e

The quarterly growth rate in revenues is significantly different from 1.2%.

b.

Since Q_1=Q_2=Q_3 = 0 ; X = 27

Thus ;

log_{10} \hat Y= 6.102+0.012 X - 0.129 Q_1 - 0.054 Q_2 + 0.098 Q_3

log_{10} \hat Y= 6.102+0.012 (27)

\hat Y=10^{ 6.102+0.012 (27) }

\hat Y = 2666858.665

\hat Y =  2,666,858

Explain why 7 times x/7=x. How does your answer help you solve a division equation such as x/7=2?
tatiyna
Dear Ajtocute, let's have x=9 Multiply 7 by 9 to get 63. Then, you divide 63 by 7 to get back to 9. You just cancel out the multiplication with division.

Find a linear equation whose graph is the straight line with the given property.
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

y = 3/4x - 9/8

Then read explanation and see here with 2 coordinates would make

if 3/4 = -6 then 1 = -8

y = -6x + c

-6 / 3/4  + 9/8 / - 0.5  = -2.25

therefore c = -2.25

y = -6x - 2.25

y = -6x - 9/4  and again 9/4 can be found easily if round up fraction decimal to 225/100 and divide by 4

Step-by-step explanation:

C1)    (0.5 , -0.75)

C2)   ( 1. -3.75)

y = mx + c

-3.75 - - 0.75  /   1 - 0.5  = -3.75 + 0.75 / 0.5

= -3 / 0.5 = m

m = -6

y = -6x + c

then this works given just one coordinate to solve for 1 or 2 sets given points

y - y1 = mx+c

y - - 0.75 =  0.75 (x - x1)

y + 0.75 = 0.75 (x - 0.5)

y + 0.75 = 0.75x - 0.375

y = 0.75 - 0.75   =  0.75x( - 0.375 - 0.75)

y = 0.75x -1.125

y = 3/4x - 9/8    as common denominators of 1125/1000 is 9/8 as we divide by  125 into the fraction as we start at 250 and check its half just like when finding common denominators we 1/4 the lower number and see if we can find its half or its double etc with the other num er as first step for 3sf numbers.

The slope of a line is 58, and the line passes through the point (−8,−4).
nadezda [96]

Answer:

y=58x+460

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b

We are given m=58 so we have

y=58x+b

We are given (-8,-4) is a point on the line.

-4=58(-8)+b

-4=-464+b

460=b

So the line in slope intercept form is y=58x+460
