A statistician wanted to determine if the demographic variables of age, education, and income influence the number of hours of television watched per week. A random sample of 25 adults was selected to estimate the multiple regression model:
where y is the number of hours of television watched last week, x1 is the age (in years), x2 is the number of years of education, and x3 is income (in $1,000). The computer output is shown below.
Test the overall validity of the model at the 5% significance level.
What is the test statistic?
F = ______________
______________
Conclude that the model ______________ valid at the 5% level.
Is there sufficient evidence at the 1% significance level to indicate that hours of television watched and age are linearly related?

A publisher of college textbooks conducted a study to relate profit per text y to cost of sales x over a 6-year period when its sales force (and sales costs) were growing rapidly. These inflation-adjusted data (in thousands of dollars) were collected:
Expecting profit per book to rise and then plateau, the publisher fitted the model
to the data. What conclusions can you draw from the accompanying residual plots?

A publisher is studying the effectiveness of advertising to sell a woman's magazine. She wishes to investigate the relationship between the number of magazines sold (10,000's), the "reach" (proportion of the population who see at least one advertisement for the magazine), and the average income of the target market ($1,000's). The publisher suspects people at certain income levels might be more susceptible to this advertising campaign than others. Preliminary studies show there is no evidence of a quadratic relationship between sales and either of the other two variables. Use the output below to answer the questions.
Is there an interaction effect? Test at the 5% significance level.
One may conclude that there ______________ interaction between the "reach" (proportion of the population who see at least one advertisement for the magazine), and the average income of the target market.
Develop 95% confidence intervals for the intercept and the partial regression coefficients.
