Explanation / Answer

Hypotehsis testing:

H0:slope=0

H1:atleast one of the slope not =0

alpha=0.05

F=88.733

p=.000

Model is significant

Reject Null hypothesis.

There is suffiicient statistical evidence at 5% level of significance to conclude that the slopes of regression line are not equal to zero.

For (Constant) t=-2.83 p=0.06

p>0.05

Y intercept is not signficant.

For Number of Math Courses taken t=4.271,p=0.000

p<0.05

Number of Math Courses is significant variable.

For High School Grade Point Average,t=4.263

p=0.000 and p<0.05

High School Grade Point Average is significant.

For College Grade Point Average,t=8.540 p=0.00

p<0.05

College Grade Point Average is significant variable.

Coeffiiecient of determiantion=R sq=0.806

80.6% variation inScore on Stat Final is explained by 3 IV's

Number of Math Courses taken, High School Grade Point Average, College Grade Point Average.

Good model.

Final regression eq is

From output

Score on Stat Final=-8.251+5.095*High School Grade Point Average+9.915*College Grade Point Average

+2.901*Number of Math courses taken.
