question 161

Multiple Choice

SCENARIO 18-11 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 Scenario 18-11, which of the following is the correct expression for the estimated model?

• A)Y =-27.118 +0.015 SAT -0.390 Toefl550 +2.078 Room / Brd
• B) 7.118 +0.015 SAT -0.390 Toefl550 +2.078 Room / Brd
• C)ln (odds ratio) =-27.118 +0.015 SAT -0.390 Toefl550 +2.078 Room / Brd
• D)ln (estimated odds ratio) 7.118 +0.015 SAT -0.390 Toefl550 +2.078 Room / Brd
