Question

**Data Set is in R Program using the package called faraway

1. Using the cheddar data:• (a) Fit a linear model with taste as the response and the other three variables as

predictors.
• (b) Suppose that the observations were taken in time order. Create a time variable.Plot the residuals of the model against time and comment on what can be seen.
• (c) Fit a GLS model with same form as above and allow for an AR(1) correlationamong the errors. Is there evidence of such a correlation?
• (d) Fit a OLS model but with time as an additional predictor. Investigate thesignicance of time in the model

Explanation / Answer

(a)

library(faraway)
data(cheddar)
x=cheddar
t=c(x[,1])
a=c(x[,2])
h=c(x[,3])
l=c(x[,4])
A=lm(t~a+h+l)
A

Call:
lm(formula = t ~ a + h + l)

Coefficients:
(Intercept)            a            h            l
   -28.8768       0.3277       3.9118      19.6705


(b)

tt=1:length(x[,1])
res=resid(A)
plot(tt,res,ylab="Residuals", xlab="Time",main="cheddar")
abline(0,0)

The scatterplots show no obvious patterns, although the residuals tend to be negative for large values of the time predictor.

For other question, R donot install GLS package.
