Question

A small Internet company wants to determine how the money they spend on Google Adwords impacts their monthly revenue. Over 6 consecutive months, they vary the amount they spend on their Adwords campaign (in $) and record the associated revenue (in $) for each month. The data is shown below. Assignment 10q2 data a) Develop a regression equation for predicting monthly revenue based on the amount spent with Adwords. What is the y-intercept? Give your answer to two decimal places. 504.152 Correct: Your answer is correct. b) What is the proper interpretation of the y-intercept in the regression equations? The y-intercept describes the expected increase in revenue for each additional dollar spent on Adwords. The y-intercept describes the expected revenue if the company spends $25 in a given month on Adwords. The y-intercept describes the expected decrease in revenue for each additional dollar spent on Adwords. The y-intercept describes the expected revenue if the company does not spend any money in a given month on Adwords. Correct: Your answer is correct. c) What is the sample correlation between these two variables? Give your answer to two decimal places. 0.0374 Correct: Your answer is correct. d) What is the slope of your regression equation? Give your answer to two decimal places. 0.04457 Correct: Your answer is correct. e) Using a 0.05 level of significance, does this regression equation appear to have any value for predicting revenue based on Adwords expenditures? No because there is a significant linear relationship between the two quantities. Yes because there is not a significant linear relationship between the two quantities. Yes because there is a significant linear relationship between the two quantities. No because there is not a significant linear relationship between the two quantities.

Explanation / Answer

Following is the output of regression analysis generated by excel:

(a)

y -intercept: 504.15

(b)

The y-intercept describes the expected revenue if the company does not spend any money in a given month on Adwords.

(c)

The correlation coeffcient is

r = 0.04

(d)

The slope is:0.04

(e)

The p-value is 0.9439

Since p-value is greater than 0.05 so we cannot conclude that model is signficant.

No because there is not a significant linear relationship between the two quantities.
