For a certain data $(x_i, y_i)$, $i = 1,2,...,7$: $\sum_{i=1}^{7} y_i = 246$ and $\sum_{i=1}^{7} u_iy_i = 29$, $\sum_{i=1}^{7} u_i^2 = 28$ where $u_i = x_i - 2004$, then straight line trend by the method of least square is :

Consider the following data of expenses (in lakhs) of an organization year wise

Then expected expenses trends for the year 2006 using method of least square is:

Which of the following is not a component of the time series?

Consider the following data

The equation of straight line trend by method of least square for the above data is given by

For predicting the straight line trend in the sales of cars (in thousands) on the basis of 5 consecutive years' data, the company makes use of a 3-year moving averages method. If the sales of the cars for respective years are 15, 24, 18, 33 and 42 respectively, then which of the following averages will not be computed?

Let $y_t=a+b(x_i-2021)$ be the straight line trend for the following data by least squares method:

the trend value for the year 2025 approximately is:

Which of the following statements are correct?

A. If $x_1,x_2,x_3,\dots,x_n$ is the given annual time series, then 3-yearly moving averages are $\dfrac{x_1+x_2+x_3}{3},\dfrac{x_2+x_3+x_4}{3},\dots\dots$

B. In the method of the least squares, if $(t_1,y_1),(t_2,y_2),\dots(t_n,y_n)$ denote the time series and $y_t$ are trend values of $y$, then $\sum(y-y_t)=0$

C. In the method of the least squares, the sum of squares of the deviations of the values of $y$ from their corresponding trend values is least.

D. The rise in prices before Diwali is an example of a cyclical trend.
