a) Using the data analysis package in excel to find the regression relationship among X 1 , X 2 , X 3 , and Y
b) Once finishing analysis data in step a, one inspector suspected that the relationship among these factors is not linear. As a result of that, the inspector decided to transform the data. The inspector suspect that the relationship of these factors is under the form
y= β 0 X 1 β 1 X 2 β 2 X 3 β 3
To make data transform, firstly, 2 sides of the equation are transformed into natural logarithm then the regression is conducted.
