An actuary wanted to develop a model to predict how long individuals will live. After consulting a number of physicians, she collected the age at death (y), the average number of hours of exercise per week ( ), the cholesterol level ( ), and the number of points by which the individual's blood pressure exceeded the recommended value ( ). A random sample of 40 individuals was selected. The computer output of the multiple regression model is shown below:

Pop-up coffee vendors have been popular in the city of Adelaide in 2013. A vendor is interested in knowing how temperature (in degrees Celsius) and number of different pastries and biscuits offered to customers impacts daily hot coffee sales revenue (in $00's).
A random sample of 6 days was taken, with the daily hot coffee sales revenue and the corresponding temperature and number of different pastries and biscuits offered on that day, noted.
Excel output for a multiple linear regression is given below: Coffee sales revenue Temperature Pastries/biscuits 6.5 25 7 10 17 13 5.5 30 5 4.5 35 6 3.5 40 3 28 9 15 SUMMARV OUTPUT Regression Stotistics Multiple R 0.87 R Square 0.75 Adjusted R Square 0.59 Standard Error 5.95 Otservations 6.00 ANOVA Significonce df SS MS F F Regression 2.00 322.14 161.07 4.55 0.12 Residual 3.00 106.20 35.40 Total 5.00 428.33 Coefficients Standard Error tStot Pvolue Lower 95\% Upper 95\% Intercept 18.68 37.8 0.49 0.66 -101.88 139.24 Temperature -0.50 0.83 -0.60 0.59 -3.15 2.15 Patries/bisouits 0.49 2.02 0.24 0.82 -5.94 6.92 Comment on the difference between the coefficient of determination and the Adjusted coefficient of determination.
