    Uploaded by

    Fakhar Un Nisa
    The document describes 5 practice exercises involving multiple linear regression analysis on different datasets. For each exercise, the dependent and independent variables are identified and the relevant data is provided in a table. The exercises involve exploring relationships between variables, building regression models to predict outcomes, determining significant predictors, and discussing the analyses in detail.

    Practice Exercise 1: Suppose you wish to build a model that will help determine if the expected number of batteries

    returned by the customers is indeed related to failure rate changes. To build his regression model, you consider a sample of 14 days of operations. He tabulates the proportions of the returned batteries and the failure rate before the batteries were shipped and obtains the data shown in Table below.

    Plot the data on scatter plot and explore what kind of relationship exist between Return and Accuracy, Also build a regression model to predict the Return on the basis of Accuracy. Practice Exercise 2: Fatick Distribution operates on the basis of activity-based costing and internal customer-supplier relationship. The Information Technology (IT) department is considered as a supplier of services to the Operations department. The Operations director has been complaining because the radio frequency (RF) devices keep locking up and preventing the employees from doing their work. It has been decided that the QA department will audit the IT process and keep track of all the down-times, which will be considered as a poor service provided by IT. Because of the aging IT hardware, the company has been having a lot of computer-related downtime. The QA manager decided to estimate the effect of IT downtime on the productivity of the employees to determine if the losses due to computer problems warrant an upgrade of the computer system. He takes a sample of 25 days and tabulates the downtimes (in minutes) and the productivity of the associates for those days in Table below.

    Practice Exercise 3: A Customer Service manager has been urged to reduce the operating costs in her department. The only way she can do it is through a reduction of staff. Reducing her staff while still responding to all her customers calls within a specied time frame would require addressing the causes of the calls and improving on them. She initiates a Six Sigma project to reduce customer complaints. In the Analyze phase of the project, she categorizes the reasons for the calls into three groups: damaged plastic, machine overheating, and ignorance (for the customers who do not know how to use the product). She believes that these are the main causes for the customers to keep her representatives too long over the phone. She tabulates a random sample of 15 days, shown in Table 10.5 (in minutes). The dependent (or response) variable is Call Time and the independent variables (or regressors) are Overheat, Plastic, and Ignorance. The data is in table below: Carry out Multiple regression analysis in details.

    Carry out Multiple regression analysis in details.

    Practice Exercise 4: Senegal Electric is a company that manufactures and sells robots. It markets the robots through ve channels: websites,TV, magazine, radio, and billboards. A Six Sigma project was initiated to reduce marketing cost and improve its impact on sales. In the Analyze phase of the project, a Black Belt decides to build a regression model that will determine the signicant factors that affect sales and eliminate the insignicant ones from the model. She randomly selects 15 days of a month and tabulates the number of hits from the website, the number of coupons fromthemagazine, the numbers of radio and TV broadcasts, and the number of people who bought the robots because they saw the billboards. She wants to build a model that uses all the variables whose variations signicantly explain the variation in sales. At the same time, she wants the model to be simple and relevant. This data is presented in Table below

    Run multiple linear regression discuss the significance of each predictor. Practice Exercise 5: The rotations per minute (RPM) is critical to the quality of a wind generator. Several components affect the RPM of a particular generator. Among them, the weight of the fans, the speed of the wind, and the pressure. After having designed the Conakry model of a wind generator, the reliability engineer wants to build a model that will show how the Rotation variable relates to the Wind, Pressure, and Weight variables. After testing the generator under different settings, he tabulates the results shown in Table below
