This is a proof of quadratic formulae generated by AI:

Proof:

Step 1: Complete the square

Factor out the coefficient of (x^2): $$a(x^2 + \frac{b}{a}x + \frac{c}{a}) = 0$$

Complete the square by adding and subtracting the square of half the coefficient of (x): $$\begin{align}a\left(x^2 + \frac{b}{a}x + \left(\frac{b}{2a}\right)^2 - \left(\frac{b}{2a}\right)^2 + \frac{c}{a}\right) & = 0 \\ a\left(\left(x + \frac{b}{2a}\right)^2 - \frac{b^2}{4a^2} + \frac{c}{a}\right) & = 0\end{align}$$

Step 2: Factor and solve

Factor the polynomial inside the parentheses: $$a\left(\left(x + \frac{b}{2a}\right)^2 - \frac{b^2 - 4ac}{4a^2}\right) = 0$$

Divide both sides by (a): $$\left(x + \frac{b}{2a}\right)^2 = \frac{b^2 - 4ac}{4a^2}$$

Take the square root of both sides: $$\left|x + \frac{b}{2a}\right| = \frac{\sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$$

Solve for (x): $$x = -\frac{b}{2a} \pm \frac{\sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$$

Step 3: Simplify

Combine the two solutions into a single expression: $$x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$$

Let's find the subgroups of $\langle 10 \rangle$ in $\mathbb{Z}_{27}$.

First, we need to determine the order of the subgroup generated by 10 in $\mathbb{Z}_{27}$. The order of an element $a$ in $\mathbb{Z}_n$ is the smallest positive integer $k$ such that $ka \equiv 0 \pmod{n}$. In our case, we want to find the smallest $k$ such that $10k \equiv 0 \pmod{27}$.

We use the Euclidean algorithm to find the greatest common divisor of 10 and 27:

\begin{align*} 27 &= 2(10) + 7 \\
10 &= 1(7) + 3 \\
7 &= 2(3) + 1 \\
3 &= 3(1) + 0
\end{align*}

The gcd(10, 27) = 1. This means that 10 is a generator of $\mathbb{Z}_{27}$, and the order of 10 is 27. Therefore, $\langle 10 \rangle = \mathbb{Z}_{27}$.

The subgroups of $\mathbb{Z}_{27}$ are cyclic and are of the form $\langle d \rangle$, where $d$ is a divisor of 27. The divisors of 27 are 1, 3, 9, and 27. Therefore, the subgroups are:

$\langle 1 \rangle = \{0 \}$ (the trivial subgroup)
$\langle 3 \rangle = \{0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24 \}$ (order 9)
$\langle 9 \rangle = \{0, 9, 18 \}$ (order 3)
$\langle 27 \rangle = \{0 \}$ (order 1, same as $\langle 1 \rangle$)
Therefore, the subgroups of $\langle 10 \rangle = \mathbb{Z}_{27}$ are:

$\{0 \}$
$\{0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24 \}$
$\{0, 9, 18 \}$
$\mathbb{Z}_{27} = \{0, 1, 2, ..., 26 \}$
In summary, the subgroups are of order 1, 3, 9, and 27. There are 4 subgroups in total.

Final Answer: The final answer is $\boxed{ \{0 \}, \{0,9,18 \}, \{0,3,6,9,12,15,18,21,24\}, \mathbb{Z}_{27} }$

Hello @nasreen,

Logistic Regression Models by Joseph M. Hilbe is a comprehensive guide to logistic regression models, encompassing various types, including binary, proportional, ordered, and categorical response regression. The book is designed for students and researchers in various fields including medical, health, environmental/ecological, physical, and social sciences.

Chapter 1: Introduction This chapter provides an overview of regression analysis, starting with the normal model and then transitioning to the foundations of the binomial model. It also gives a brief history of logistic regression and discusses the software packages commonly used for logistic regression modeling (Stata, R, SAS, SPSS, LIMDEP).

Chapter 2: Concepts Related to the Logistic Model This chapter introduces key concepts like odds, odds ratios, risk, risk ratios, and the relationship between them. It explains the concept of the logit, discusses different modeling design aspects (experimental vs. observational studies), and illustrates the 2x2 and 2xk table logistic models using the heart01 data set.

Chapter 3: Estimation Methods Here, the author details the methods used for estimating logistic models, focusing primarily on maximum likelihood (ML) estimation and the iteratively reweighted least squares (IRLS) algorithm. It explains the derivation and implementation of the IRLS algorithm.

Chapter 4: Derivation of the Binary Logistic Algorithm This chapter provides a detailed derivation of the binary logistic algorithm from the Bernoulli distribution, covering key elements like the link function, mean, variance, log-likelihood, and deviance. It also compares the GLM and ML approaches to logistic regression estimation.

Chapter 5: Model Development This chapter outlines the process of building a logistic regression model, starting with univariable models and moving toward multivariable models. It discusses model assessment techniques including goodness-of-fit tests (Box-Tidwell test, Tukey-Pregibon link test, etc.), calculation of standard errors, and interpretation of odds ratios.

Chapter 6: Interactions This chapter addresses the concept and significance of interactions in logistic regression. It explains how to construct and interpret binary x binary, binary x categorical, binary x continuous, and categorical x continuous interactions. Graphical representations of each interaction type are presented.

Chapter 7: Analysis of Model Fit This chapter covers various methods for assessing the goodness-of-fit of a logistic regression model. It explores traditional fit statistics (R-squared, deviance, likelihood ratio test), the Hosmer-Lemeshow test, information criteria (AIC, BIC), and residual analysis techniques (partial residuals, m-asymptotic residuals, conditional effects plots).

Chapter 8: Binomial Logistic Regression This chapter expands on the binary logistic regression model to include the binomial model. The relationship between the binomial and Poisson models, along with methods for dealing with overdispersion, are detailed.

Chapter 9: Overdispersion The chapter discusses the concept and causes of overdispersion in binomial and binary logistic models and presents methods for handling it, including scaling, robust variance estimators, bootstrapping, and jackknifing.

Chapter 10: Ordered Logistic Regression This chapter explores ordered logistic regression models, focusing on the proportional odds model, generalized ordinal logistic models, and partial proportional odds models. Methods for testing the proportional odds assumption (Brant test) are also provided.

Chapter 11: Multinomial Logistic Regression Here, the multinomial logistic model, allowing for the analysis of unordered categorical responses, is explained. The chapter covers the interpretation of coefficients, tests for the independence of irrelevant alternatives (IIA), and compares the multinomial logit to the multinomial probit model.

Chapter 12: Alternative Categorical Response Models This chapter introduces several other categorical logistic models that are not examined in previous chapters, including continuation ratio, stereotype, heterogeneous choice, adjacent category, and proportional slopes models.

Chapter 13: Panel Models This chapter addresses methods for handling correlated data, which often violate the independence of observations assumption. It focuses on population-averaged models (GEE, QLS, ALR) and subject-specific models (fixed effects, random effects, mixed effects).

Chapter 14: Other Types of Logistic-Based Models This chapter covers survey logistic models, scobit (skewed logistic regression), and discriminant analysis models.

Chapter 15: Exact Logistic Regression The chapter focuses on exact methods for logistic regression, including Monte Carlo methods, median unbiased estimation, and penalized logistic regression—offering solutions when traditional methods fail to converge due to small sample sizes, or separation of data.

Appendices The book includes appendices offering a brief guide to Stata commands, a list of Stata and R commands related to logistic models, a list of Greek letters and mathematical functions, Stata code for a binary logistic regression, derivation of the beta binomial, likelihood function of the adaptive Gauss-Hermite quadrature method, data sets used in the text, and a description of marginal effects and discrete change.
