8.4 Consider a logistic regression model with two predictors and the following parameters:

the intercept is α = 1.5, and the slopes are β1

= 0.4 and β2

= −0.1.

a. Compute the predicted odds when X1

= 2 and X2

= 4.

b. Compute the predicted odds when X1

= 2 and X2

= 5.

c. Based on your results to parts

(a) and (b), explain how the value of β2 can be interpreted.
