Transcribed Image Text:
Please consider the data presented above for the monthly sales of Ever-cool brand of refrigerators in
1,000s of dollars (Dependent Variable) and the four independent variables.
Independent variables are:
Price (in dollars); Promotional Expenditure (in 1,000s of dollars); Quality of service (scale of 1-100);
location (categorical variable: city area: 1; suburban area: 0).
Develop a multiple linear regression equation using either Excel or Minitab and based on the relevant
outputs please answer the following questions:
a. Based on the relevant residual and normality plots, do you see any evidence of violation of
assumptions (Linearity, Normality, Equal variance)? You must attach the relevant plots as part of your
report.
b. State the multiple regression equation and interpret the statistical meaning of the estimated slopes,
b, bi, bi, and bi (corresponding to the four independent variables).
c. At the 0.05 level of significance, determine whether each independent variable makes a significant
contribution to the regression model. Based on these results, indicate the independent variable(s) to
include in this model. (Based on t-test results)
d. Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the population slope between the independent
variable 'Quality' and the dependent variable 'Monthly Sales' (P.) (please note that Minitab can't do
this directly, however you may use the relevant information from Minitab output and then construct the
confidence interval manually)
e. Perform the overall F-test and comment on the significance of the model.
Use Excel to run the analysis.
Please use excel
