We can use F or t

None of these alternatives is correct.

Refer to test 3

At a = 0.05, test to determine if the fitted equation developed in Part a represents a significant relationship between the independent variables and the dependent variable.

to find p-value we should use excel function

Question 16 options:

p-value is FDIST (F,df1,df2)

p-value is FDIST (t,df1,2)

p-value is FDIST (t,df2,2)

None of these alternatives is correct

Refer to case 3. At a = 0.05, test to determine if the fitted equation developed in Part a represents a significant relationship between the independent variables and the dependent variable.

Conclusion is

Question 17 options:

F = 80.12; p-value > .01; Don’t reject H0

The model is not significant at alpha 0.05

F = 8.12

F = 80.12; p-value < .01 (almost zero); reject H0

and conclude that te model is significant at alpha 0.05

None of these alternatives is correct.

Refer to case 3

At 95% confidence, test to see if price is a significant variable.

Use test statistics

Question 18 options:

both t and F

None of these alternatives is correct.

Refer to case 3. At 95% confidence, test to see if price is a significant variable.

Conclusion is

Question 19 options:

t = 0.008; p-value less than alpha . Reject H0; price is a significant variable at alpha 0.05

t = 1.078; p-value is between 0.1 and 0.2; do not reject H0; price is not a significant variable at 95% confidence.

t = 1.078; p-value is less than 0.1 ; reject H0 price is a significant variable at 95% confidance

None of these alternatives is correct.
