We assume that our wages will Increase as we gain experience and become more valuable to our employers. Wages also Increase because of inflation. By examining a sample of employees at a glven point in time, we can look at part af the picture. How does length ot service Los relate to wages? The data here data 2, dat is the L s in months and wages or b women who work in Indiana banks. wages re year y total income divided by the number o weeks worked we have multiplied wages by a constant or reasons of contidentiality, a) Plot wages versus Los. Consider the relationship and whether or not linear regression might be appropriate. (Do this on paper. Your instructor may ask you to turn in this graph.) b Find the least-squares line. Summarize the significance test for the slope. What do you conclude? wages LOs State carefully what the slope talls you about thc relationship between wagcs and length of servicc (d) Give 95% confidence interval for the slope

Explanation / Answer

Enter the data into Excel and create a scatter plot.

(a)The plot is seen to be clustered and the straight line doesn’t seem to appropriately represent the points.

(b)Click on Data tab -> Data Analysis Tool pack -> Regression -> Y-axis : wages, X-axis : los, tick labels -> OK.

Wages = 54.47979 + 0.040345*los
= 0.12615

(c) The slope indicates the increase in the value of wage for an unit increase in the value of los.

(d)95% CI : (-0.04304       0.123735)
