Given below are results from the regression analysis where the dependent variable is the number of weeks a worker is unemployed due to a layoff (Unemploy)and the independent variables are the age of the worker (Age),the number of years of education received (Edu),the number of years at the previous job (Job Yr),a dummy variable for marital status (Married: 1 = married,0 = otherwise),a dummy variable for head of household (Head: 1 = yes,0 = no)and a dummy variable for management position (Manager: 1 = yes,0 = no).We shall call this Model 1.

The education department's regional executive officer wanted to predict the percentage of students passing a Grade 6 proficiency test.She obtained the data on percentage of students passing the proficiency test (% Passing),daily average of the percentage of students attending class (% Attendance),average teacher salary in dollars (Salaries),and instructional spending per pupil in dollars (Spending)of 47 schools in the state.
Following is the multiple regression output with Y = % Passing as the dependent variable,
X1 = % Attendance,X2 = Salaries and X3 = Spending:

An econometrician is interested in evaluating the relation of demand for building materials to mortgage rates in Sydney and Melbourne.He believes that the appropriate model is
Y = 10 + 5X1 + 8X2
where X1 = mortgage rate in %
X2 = 1 if Sydney,0 if Melbourne
Y = demand in $100 per capita
-Referring to Instruction 13-11,the fitted model for predicting demand in Sydney is ________.
