Question

Study the following Excel multiple regression output. How many predictors are in this model? How many observations? What is the equation of the regression line? Discuss the strength of the model in terms F. Which predictors, if any, are significant? Why or why not? Comment on the overall effectiveness of the model.

Explanation / Answer

There are 3 predictor variables in the model.

There are 15 observations.

The equation of the regression line is

y = 658.0420 + 5.8201 x1 - 0.4806 x2 - 3.4199 x3

Since the F value is very small the model is a very good predictor.

Since the p value of x1 is quite less, it is a significant predictor variable.

Overall the model is very effective.
