Question 109

Essay

Senior Medical Students
A professor of Anatomy wanted to develop a multiple regression model to predict the students' grades in her fourth-year medical course.She decides that the two most important factors are the student's grade point average in the first three years and the student's major.She proposes the model y = β\beta 0 + β\beta 1x1 + β\beta 2x2 + β\beta 3x3 + ε\varepsilon ,where y = Fourth-year medical course final score (out of 100),x1 = G.P.A.in first three years (range from 0 to 12),x2 = 1 if student's major is medicine and 0 if not,and x3 = 1 if student's major is biology and 0 if not.The computer output is shown below.
THE REGRESSION EQUATION IS
y = 9.14 + 6.73x1 + 10.42x2 + 5.16x3
