Question

Consider the accompanying set of dependent and independent variables. The variable

x 3x3

is qualitative with

Hequals=High,

Mequals=Medium,

and

Lequals=Low.

Complete parts a and b below.

Using technology, construct a regression model using all three independent variables. (Let variable

Cond 1Cond1

be one of the dummy variables for

x 3x3.

Assign a 1 to High for this variable. Let

Cond

be another dummy variable for

x 3

Assign a 1 to Medium for this variable.)

Complete the regression equation for the model below, where

x 3

represents the dummy variable

Cond

and

x 4x4

represents the dummy variable

Cond 2

please give me the equation !

Explanation / Answer

The data including dummy variable will be:

The statistical software output for the regression equation is:

Multiple linear regression results:
