If a data set contains 6 independent variables, the number of all possible regression models will be __________.

63

A real estate analyst has developed a multiple regression line, y = 63 + 0.187 x1 - 3.7 x2, to predict y = the market price of a home (in $10,000s), using independent variables, x1 = the total number of square feet of living space, and x2 = the age of the house in years. What does the regression coefficient of x2 suggest?

If the square feet area of living space is kept constant, a 1 year increase in the age of the homes will result in a predicted increase of $37,000 in the price of the homes.

A stepwise regression search procedure stops when _____________________.

no more significant independent variables remain outside of the model

One of the assumptions of simple regression analysis is that the error terms are exponentially distributed. t/f

Assume that X1, X2 and X3 are the dollars invested in three different common stocks from New York Stock Exchange. In order to diversify the investments, the investing company requires that no less than 60% of the dollars invested shall be in ʺstock 1 and stock 3 combinedʺ. The constraint for this requirement can be written as:

0.4X1-0.6X2+0.4X3 ≥ 0

Cully Turniture buys two products for resale: big shelves (B) and medium shelves (M). Each big shelf costs $500 and requires 100 cubic feet of storage space, and each medium shelf costs $300 and requires 90 cubic feet of storage space. The company has $75,000 to invest in shelves this week, and the warehouse has 18,000 cubic feet available for storage. Profit for each big shelf is $300 and for each medium shelf is $150. What is the storage space constraint?

The production manager for the Cully soft drink company is considering the production of two kinds of soft drinks: regular (R) and diet(D). Two of the limited resources are production time (8 hours = 480 minutes per day) and syrup (1 of the ingredients), limited to 675 gallons per day. To produce a regular case requires 2 minutes and 5 gallons of syrup, while a diet case needs 4 minutes and 3 gallons of syrup. Profits for regular soft drink are $3.00 per case and profits for diet soft drink are $2.00 per case. What is the time constraint?

2R + 4D <= 480

Dean Air uses a linear programming model to schedule flights, assign crews and meet passenger demand. The objective function is to minimize downtime. Constraints include a limit on pilot hours, meeting passenger demand, and scheduled downtime. Which of the following cannot be accomplished with sensitivity analysis?

Change the objective to maximize profits.

Which of the following statement about using Excel on multiple linear regression is WRONG?

False

The production planner for Fine Coffees, Inc. produces two coffee blends: American (A) and British (B). He can only get 300 pounds of Colombian beans per week and 200 pounds of Dominican beans per week. Each pound of American blend coffee requires 12 ounces of Colombian beans and 4 ounces of Dominican beans, while a pound of British blend coffee uses 8 ounces of each type of bean. Profits for the American blend are $2.00 per pound, and profits for the British blend are $1.00 per pound. Which of the following describe the right objective function of maximized profit?

Max P = 2A + B

The production manager for the Coory soft drink company is considering the production of two kinds of soft drinks: regular (R) and diet (D). Two of her limited resources are production time (8 hours per day) and syrup (1 of the ingredients), limited to 675 gallons per day. To produce a regular case requires 2 minutes and 5 gallons of syrup, while a diet case needs 4 minutes and 3 gallons of syrup. Profits for regular soft drink are $3.00 per case and profits for diet soft drink are $2.00 per case. What are the optimal daily production quantities of each product and the optimal daily profit?

R = 90, D = 75, Z = $420

In March 2016, HTC sold 756 flagship phones, HTC One, in USA. Dr. Chiang predicted that HTC would sell 637 HTC One phones for that time period. If Dr. Chiang uses simple exponential smoothing method to forecast the number of HTC One sales using an alpha value equal 0.85, what is the forecasted HTC Once sales in April 2016?

The forecasted number of HTC One sales in April 2016 is greater than 693 but less than or equal to 746.
