Do all work in SAS:
The file pharmacy.dat (below) contains information on volume of prescription sales for 20 pharmacies. Create a SAS data set using formatted input and the following information:
| Variable | Type | Columns | Description |
| pharmacy | numeric | 1-2 | Id number |
| sales | numeric | 5-6 | Sales per month in thousands |
| floor | numeric | 9-12 | Floor space in square feet |
| rxpct | numeric | 15-16 | Percent of floor space devoted to pharmacy |
| park | numeric | 19-20 | Number of parking spaces |
| center | numeric | 23 | 1=In a shopping center 0=Not in a shopping center |
| Income | numeric | 26-27 | Per capita income in thousands of dollars |
- Create a nice printout of the data, showing labels, translated values, and a descriptive title.
- Create a matrix with correlations between the fields floor, rxpct, park, and income. Also find all correlations of those 4 predictors with the response field sales. Show the original title and a secondary title stating Correlations.
- Create an X-Y plot for rxpct versus sales and another for park vs. sales. Also create a histogram for rxpct with both a normal and a kernel density estimate overlaid on the histogram. Secondary title should be Plots.
- Find the linear regression model with sales as the response and floor and income as the predictors. Are both predictors significant? Report the model.
- Assume that this is a random sample of pharmacies. Test to see if the number of pharmacies in shopping centers differs from the number of pharmacies not in shopping centers (hint: this is a chi-square test).
- Create regression models for all combinations of the predictors and report the best two variable model (use CP to make that determination). What is the adjusted R square for this model? Is floor significant in this model?
