Question

Frozen pizzas account for over $3 billion/year in sales and are a major sector of the frozen food market; see Companies and Markets. Consumer's Union recently rated 27 brands of frozen pizza and assigned a score to each brand based on flavor and quality. The data are in this Excel file: Pizza Ratings. A multiple regression with Score as the response variable and Fat, Calories, and Type (cheese = 1, pepperoni = 0) resulted in the following plot of the residuals against the predicted values; the plot has been color-coded by Type of pizza: pizza ratings resid vs pred

The plot indicates that there are different slopes for the 2 types of pizza. To adjust the slopes an interaction term should be included in the model. Perform a multiple regression with Score as the response variable and Calories, Fat, Type (cheese = 1, pepperoni = 0) and the interaction term Type*Calories as the explanatory variables.

Question 1. For a cheese pizza, if Fat is unchanged, each additional calorie changes the pizza's score by how much?

Question 2. For a pepperoni pizza, if Fat is unchanged, each additional calorie changes the pizza's score by how much?

Question 3. What is the residual for a DiGiorno cheese pizza?

Question 4. What is the residual for a DiGiorno pepperoni pizza?

Explanation / Answer

the regression equaion is given by

score=-464.5+1.92*calories-10.38*fat+183.63*Type-0.46*(type*calories)

answer of question 1) here type=1,caloreis=1,type*calories=1, fat is unchanged

change in score will be=1.92+183.63*1-0.46=185.09

answer of question 2)here type=0,caloreis=1,type*calories=0, fat is unchanged

change in score will be=1.92+183.63*0-0.46*0=1.92

anser of question 3) here observed value=85, calories=332, fat=12,type=1,type*calories=332

we fit this value in followin equaion

score=-464.5+1.92*calories-10.38*fat+183.63*Type-0.46*(type*calories)

and estimated score=-464.5+1.92*332-10.38*12+183.63*1-0.46*332=79.29

residual=obserd-estimated=85-79.29=5.71

answer of question 4)

here observed value=85, calories=369, fat=16,type=0,type*calories=0

we fit this value in followin equaion

score=-464.5+1.92*calories-10.38*fat+183.63*Type-0.46*(type*calories)

and estimated score=-464.5+1.92*369-10.38*16+183.63*0-0.46*0=77.9

observed value=85

residual=observed-estimated=85-77.9=7.1
