A regression model to predict Y, the state-by-state 2005 burglary crime rate per 100,000 people, used the following four state predictors: X1 5 median age in 2005, X2 5 number of 2005 bank- ruptcies per 1,000 people, X3 5 2004 federal expenditures per capita, and X4 5 2005 high school graduation percentage. (a) Write the fitted regression equation. (b) Interpret each coef- ficient. (c) Would the intercept seem to have meaning in this regression

hello your question is incomplete attached below is the complete question

Answer :

a) attached below

b) Agemed ; 2005 median age of population

Fedspend ; 2004 federal spending per capita for all functions

HSGrad% ; 2005 public high school graduation rate

Bankrupt ; 2005 corporate or individual bankruptcies filed per 1,000 population

c) No

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Fitted regression equation

attached below is the excel procedure and the answer related to the question

b) Interpret each coefficient

Agemed ; 2005 median age of population

Fedspend ; 2004 federal spending per capita for all functions

HSGrad% ; 2005 public high school graduation rate

Bankrupt ; 2005 corporate or individual bankruptcies filed per 1,000 population

C) would the intercept seem to have meaning in this regression

The intercept wouldn't have a meaning in this regression

step-by-step explanation:

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.
