The customers are not private customers but mostly national divisions like the military or fire departments. The company has around 20 stores in Germany; however‚ the stores have different prices for the same products. The data package we received includes

Types of regression and linear regression equation 1. The term regression was first used as a statistical concept in 1877 by Sir Francis Galton. 2. Regression determines ‘cause and effect’ relationship between variables‚ so it can aid to the decision-making process. 3. It can only indicate how or to what extent variables are associated with each other. 4. There are two types of variables used in regression analysis i.e. The known variable is called as Independent Variable and the variable which

Lab: Flame Test Purpose: to determine the ID of 2 unknown substances Background Information: Every atom consists of a nucleus with tiny electrons whizzing around it. The further away from the nucleus they are‚ the more energy the electrons have. If a metal atom is heated‚ the electrons get enough energy to jump higher away from the nucleus‚ they become “excited”. When they fall back closer to the nucleus (back to their ground state)‚ they give off this extra energy as light. Why is the

Javier Jorge Dr. Moss Managerial Analysis April 11th‚ 2012 Project 3 We are given a linear regression that gives us an equation on the relationship of Quantity on Total Cost. As stated in the project‚ the regression data is very good with a relatively high R2‚ significant F‚ and t-values but we can’t use this model to estimate plant size. When we perform a simple eye test on the residual plot for Q a trend seems to form from positive to negative and back to positive. When we also

Stock Market Prices Do Not Follow Random Walks: Evidence from a Simple Specification Test Andrew W. Lo A. Craig MacKinlay University of Pennsylvania In this article we test the random walk hypothesis for weekly stock market returns by comparing variance estimators derived from data sampled at different frequencies. The random walk model is strongly rejected for the entire sample period (19621985) and for all subperiod for a variety of aggregate returns indexes and size-sorted portofolios. Although

Regression Estimation (from Lohr‚ Ex 3.6.4) Foresters want to estimate the average age of tress in a stand. Determining age is cumbersome because one needs to count the tree rings on a core taken from the tree. In general‚ though‚ the older the tree‚ the larger the diameter‚ and diameter is easy to measure. The foresters measure the diameter of all 1132 tress and find that

linear regression In statistics‚ linear regression is an approach to model the relationship between a scalar dependent variable y and one or more explanatory variables denoted X. The case of one explanatory variable is called simple linear regression. For more than one explanatory variable‚ it is called multiple linear regression. (This term should be distinguished from multivariate linear regression‚ where multiple correlated dependent variables are predicted‚[citation needed] rather than a single

Define: µ = E (rt ) Γl = E (rt − µ) (rt−l − µ)T ρl = D −1 Γl D −1 where D = diag{ Γ11 (0)‚ · · · ‚ Γkk (0)}. We use convention Γl = Γ(l)‚ ρl = ρ(l). Note each LHS is independent of t though RHS does. Write down cross correlation explicitly: ρij (l) = cov (rit ‚ rj‚t−l ) std (rit ) std (rjt ) ρ(l) is lag-l CCM. It is not necessarily symmetric. But we have ρ(−l)

1. tested and measured? The purpose of this experiment was to determine whether the dark or light coleus leaf had the presence of starch. We used a dark and light leaf to test the presence of starch and how much was produced. 2. Summarize the results and how the results were obtained. Be sure to note the reason for each treatment of the leaves. As appropriate‚ compare experimental samples to controls. Both leaves were boiled in water then placed in hot ethyl alcohol.
