A simple linear regression equation, Y=a be, estimated a computer program, produced output:
Dependent Variable:S R- Square F-Ratio P-Value On F
Observations: 25 0.7482 68.351 0.0001
Variable Parameter Standard
Estimate Error T-Ratio P-Value
Intercept 325.24 125.09 2.60 0.0160
X 0.80057 0.2898 2.78 0.0106
1. How many degrees of freedom does this regression analysis have?
2. What is the critical value of t at the 5% level of significance?
3. Test to see if the estimates of a and b are statistically significant.
4. How much of the total variation in Y is explained by this regression equation? How much of the total variation in Y is unexplained by this regression equation?
5. If X equals 100, what value do you expect Y will take? If X equals 0?
