38. If the test is to be done with an a =.05 the A. null hypothesis should be rejected B. null hypothesis should not be rejected C
critical value =
-1.645
Since -0.85 > -1.65 the null hypothesis should not be rejected.
The actual reason should be that 0.85 < 1.65 based on the introduction to the problem.
Whether 0.85 is positive or negative, the proportions are too close to warrant rejecting the null hypothesis.
39. Regression analysis was applied between demand for a product (Y) and the price of the product (X), and the following esti
The coefficient of X, -10, determines the increase in Y per unit increase in X.
Therefore a 2 unit increase in X gives a 20 unit decrease in Y.
40. If there is a very strong correlation between two variables, then the coefficient of correlation must be A. much larger than 1
D. None of these alternatives is correct.
41. Regression analysis was applied between sales (in $1000) and advertising (in $100) and the following regression function
Advertising is 10,000 implies X=100
Y = 500 +4(100) = 900
Y = 900 implies Sales = $900,000
