Data 605 - Homework #12
Joseph E. Garcia
November 10, 2018
The attached who.csv dataset contains real-world data from 2008. The variables included follow. Country: name of the country LifeExp: average life expectancy for the country in years InfantSurvival: proportion of those surviving to one year or more Under5Survival: proportion of those surviving to five years or more TBFree: proportion of the population without TB. PropMD: proportion of the population who are MDs PropRN: proportion of the population who are RNs PersExp: mean personal expenditures on healthcare in US dollars at average exchange rate GovtExp: mean government expenditures per capita on healthcare, US dollars at average exchange rate TotExp: sum of personal and government expenditures.
library(ggplot2)- Provide a scatterplot of LifeExp~TotExp, and run simple linear regression. Do not transform the variables. Provide and interpret the F statistics, R^2, standard error,and p-values only. Discuss whether the assumptions of simple linear regression met.

- Raise life expectancy to the 4.6 power (i.e., LifeExp^4.6). Raise total expenditures to the 0.06 power (nearly a log transform, TotExp^.06). Plot LifeExp^4.6 as a function of TotExp^.06, and r re-run the simple regression model using the transformed variables. Provide and interpret the F statistics, R^2, standard error, and p-values. Which model is “better?”
LifeExp4.6 <- who$LifeExp^4.6
TotExp0.06 <- who$TotExp^0.06
life_exp <- lm(LifeExp4.6 ~ TotExp0.06)

- Using the results from 3, forecast life expectancy when TotExp^.06 =1.5. Then forecast life expectancy when TotExp^.06=2.5.

- Forecast LifeExp when PropMD=.03 and TotExp = 14. Does this forecast seem realistic? Why or why not?
PropMD <- 0.03
TotExp <- 14
LifeExp<- (6.277*10) + (1.497*10^3)*PropMD + (7.233*10^-5)*TotExp - (6.026*10^-3) *PropMD*TotExp
