Explanation / Answer

The p-value for Age and Years of service is 0.0208 The p-value is very small. So, these two aresignificant. The p-value for Age and Current Sales is 0.5225 The p-value is very large. So, these two are notsignificant. The p-value for Current sales and Years of serviceis 0.0321 The p-value is very small. So, these two aresignificant. The p-value for Age and Current Sales is 0.5225 The p-value is very large. So, these two are notsignificant. The p-value for Current sales and Years of serviceis 0.0321 The p-value is very small. So, these two aresignificant. The p-value for Current sales and Years of serviceis 0.0321 The p-value is very small. So, these two aresignificant.
