Zagat's publishes restaurant ratings for various locations in the United States. The file Restaurants contains the Zagat
Question:
a. State the multiple regression equation.
b. Interpret the regression coefficients in (a).
c. Predict the cost for a restaurant with a summated rating of 60 that is located in a city and construct a 95% confidence interval estimate and a 95% prediction interval.
d. Perform a residual analysis on the results and determine whether the regression assumptions are satisfied.
e. Is there a significant relationship between price and the two independent variables (summated rating and location) at the 0.05 level of significance?
f. At the 0.05 level of significance, determine whether each independent variable makes a contribution to the
g. Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the population slope for the relationship between cost and summated rating.
h. Compare the slope in (b) with the slope for the simple linear regression model of Problem 13.5 on page 481. Explain the difference in the results.
i. Compute and interpret the meaning of the coefficient of multiple determinations.
j. Compute and interpret the adjusted r2.
k. Compare r2 with the r2 value computed in Problem 13.17(b) on page 487.
I. Compute the coefficients of partial determination and interpret their meaning,
m. What assumption about the slope of cost with summated rating do you need to make in this problem?
n. Add an interaction term to the model and, at the 0.05 level of significance, determine whether it makes a significant contribution to the model,
o. On the basis of the results of (f) and (n), which model is most appropriate? Explain.
