question 25

Short Answer

TABLE 14-18
A logistic regression model was estimated in order to predict the probability that a randomly chosen university or college would be a private university using information on mean total Scholastic Aptitude Test score (SAT) at the university or college, the room and board expense measured in thousands of dollars (Room/Brd), and whether the TOEFL criterion is at least 550 (Toefl550 = 1 if yes, 0 otherwise.) The dependent variable, Y, is school type (Type = 1 if private and 0 otherwise).
The Minitab output is given below: TABLE 14-18 A logistic regression model was estimated in order to predict the probability that a randomly chosen university or college would be a private university using information on mean total Scholastic Aptitude Test score (SAT) at the university or college, the room and board expense measured in thousands of dollars (Room/Brd), and whether the TOEFL criterion is at least 550 (Toefl550 = 1 if yes, 0 otherwise.) The dependent variable, Y, is school type (Type = 1 if private and 0 otherwise). The Minitab output is given below:   -Referring to Table 14-18, what is the estimated probability that a school with an mean SAT score of 1250, a TOEFL criterion that is at least 550, and the room and board expense of 5 thousand dollars will be a private school?
-Referring to Table 14-18, what is the estimated probability that a school with an mean SAT score of 1250, a TOEFL criterion that is at least 550, and the room and board expense of 5 thousand dollars will be a private school?
