Question

In a study for the relationship between household income and lead in the city of Michigan a sample of households were studied as shown in the table below: You were asked to develop model/equation to describe this relationship. Sigma^n _i = 1 x _i = 262. sigma^n _i = 1 y _i = 983, sigma^n _i = 1 x_i y _i = 20711, sigma^n _i = 1 x^2 _i = 9404, sigma^n _i = 1 I^2 _i = 106749 Calculate the least squares estimated of the slope and intercept of the fitted linear model identifying the relationship between income and water lead levels. For a house with water lead level of 15 ppb, what would the expected income be for that household? Calculate the residuals for a observations, what can you say about that?

Explanation / Answer

1) here b1=Sxy/SSx=-1985.98

bo=Ybar-b1*Xbar=150332.73

hence regression equztion y= -1985.98X+150332.73

b) expected income =-1985.98*15+150332.73=120543

c) residuals are given in colum Y-Yi' ' whcih reflects the shift of regression model from actual values.
