Rate of change in probability
For the wells
dataset you have already fitted a logistic regression model with the model formula switch ~ distance100
obtaining the following fit
$$
log(\frac{\mu}{1-\mu}) = 0.6060 - 0.6219\times distance100
$$
In this exercise you will use that model to understand how the estimated probability changes at a certain value of distance100
, say 1.5 as depicted in the figure below.
Recall the formulas for the inverse-logit (probability)
$$ \mu = \frac{exp(\beta_0+\beta_1x_1)}{1+exp(\beta_0+\beta_1x_1)} $$
and the slope of the tangent line of the model fit at point \(x\):
$$ \beta*\mu(1-\mu) $$
Dataset wells
and the model wells_GLM
are loaded in the workspace.
