Logistic Regression is applied when the Dependent Variable is of Continuous nature.
Select True or False.

Logistic Regression is used for classification problems, i.e. when the dependent variable is of
Categorical Nature. For Example, Good or Not Good, Guilty or Not Guilty, Defaulter or Not a
defaulter etc.
On the contrary, when you are trying to predict a Continuous Variable, you can choose to use
Linear Regression. For example, Price of a commodity, Run Rate of a Batsman etc.

If ln(odds) of an event is 0, what is the probability of that event?
Note: 'ln' refers to the natural logarithm (i.e. logarithm to the base )
0.5

None of the mentioned.
Follows from the definition.
In this case, we know that ln(P/(1-P) = 0. So, for the equation to be 0 we need to have P = 1-P (as
ln(1) = 0). Thus, we can say that P=1-P=0.5.

The following table shows the cross-tabulation of actual and predicted response after a logistic
regression model fit. What is the accuracy of the logistic regression?

Predicted Good 2300 180
Predicted Bad 200 820

0.89
You Selected
0.92
Accuracy = (TP+TN)/ (TP+TN+FP+FN)
Accuracy = (2300+820)/(2300+180+200+820) = 0.89

To predict whether a heart attack is fatal, logistic regression is fitted. Y = 1, if the attack is fatal, 0
otherwise. The following model is found to be adequate
= -8.5 + 0.2*Age + 0.15*Smoking Status [here 'ln' stands for natural

logarithm (i.e. logarithm to the base )]
Where Smoking Status = 1 if the person is a current smoker and 0 otherwise. Find the percentage
probability that a 50-year-old non-smoker will have a fatal attack.

82.34%

Putting the required value in the log-odds equation we get:
= -8.5 + 0.2*(50) + 0.15*(0) = 1.5
Pr(Y = 1) = exp(1.5)/(1+exp(1.5)) = 0.8175

Build a Logistic Regression Model on the data set.
What is the value of the True Positives predictions based on the confusion matrix?
Note: For this question, use the whole data to build the model, then use the independent
variables to predict the same whole data and then build a confusion matrix.
480
You Selected
674
140
78
In python, when you print the confusion matrix it is understood like this:
0 1
0 674 140
1 78 480
0,1 represents the class predicted. 0 comes first.
True Positive is when the actual class is 1 and the model predicted it to be 1 as well. Thus, for
index location [1,1] is the true positive in the given confusion matrix i.e. 480.
Try this code from

documentation: https://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/generated/sklearn.metrics.confusion_ma
trix.htmlLinks to an external site.
tn, fp, fn, tp = metrics.confusion_matrix(actuals,predicted).ravel()
print('Number of True Positives is ',tp)
Output: # of True Positives is 480

None of the mentioned.

Follows from the definition.

Predicted Good 2300 180

Predicted Bad 200 820

Accuracy = (TP+TN)/ (TP+TN+FP+FN)

Accuracy = (2300+820)/(2300+180+200+820) = 0.89

X-axis : False Positive Rate, Y-axis : True Positive Rate

X-axis : Accuracy, Y-axis : Misclassification Rate

X-axis : False Negative Rate, Y-axis : True Negative Rate

= -8.5 + 0.2*Age + 0.15*Smoking Status [here 'ln' stands for natural

Putting the required value in the log-odds equation we get:
