SCENARIO 15-6 Given Below Are Results from the Regression Analysis

question 97

True/False

SCENARIO 15-6 Given below are results from the regression analysis on 40 observations where the dependent variable is the number of weeks a worker is unemployed due to a layoff (Y)and the independent variables are the age of the worker ( ), the number of years of education received ( ), the number of years at the previous job ( ), a dummy variable for marital status ( 1 = married, 0 = otherwise), a dummy variable for head of household ( 1 = yes, 0 = no)and a dummy variable for management position ( 1 = yes, 0 = no). The coefficient of multiple determination ( )for the regression model using each of the 6 variables as the dependent variable and all other X variables as independent variables are, respectively, 0.2628, 0.1240, 0.2404, 0.3510, 0.3342 and 0.0993. The partial results from best-subset regression are given below:
-Referring to Scenario 15-6, the variable X6 should be dropped to remove collinearity?

Definitions:

Synchronous Motor

An AC motor that operates at a speed synchronized with the frequency of the supply current; its rotor speed matches the frequency of the stator's rotating magnetic field.

Induction Motor

An induction motor is a type of electric motor that operates on the principle of electromagnetic induction, where the rotating magnetic field induces current in the rotor.

Squirrel-Cage Induction Motors

A type of induction motor characterized by a rotor design resembling a squirrel cage, widely used due to its simplicity and durability.

Percent Slip

The percent of speed difference between the speed of the rotor and the speed of the rotation magnetic field of a motor.
