Want to know:
If the linear regression model includes an intercept, the number of dummy variables representing a categorical variable should be one less than the number of categories of the variable. This solution helps avoid which problem?-Categorical variables-This is not an issue-Dummy variable trap-Category sum trap

- We can plot the residuals sequentially over time to look for correlated observations. If there is no violation, then what would you see?-The residuals should show no pattern around the vertical axis.-The residuals should show a normal pattern around the horizontal axis.-The residuals should show no pattern around the horizontal axis.-The residuals should show a normal pattern around the vertical axis.
- Consider the following linear regression model, which links the response variable y with k predictor variables x1, x2,..., xk:y=β0+β1x1+β2x2+... +βkxk+ε. If, for example, the slope coefficient β1 equals zero, then the predictor variable x1 does what and implies what? Choose all that answer the 'does what?' and 'Implies what?' questions!-Implying that x1 does not influence y-Drops out of the equation-Then x1 influences y-Does not drop out of the equation
