Regression Analysis
The local grocery store wants to predict its daily sales in dollars.The manager believes that the amount of newspaper advertising significantly affects the store's sales.He randomly selects 7 days of data consisting of daily grocery store sales (in thousands of dollars)and advertising expenditures (in thousands of dollars).The Excel/MegaStat output given above summarizes the results of the regression model.
At a significance level of .05,test the significance of the slope and state your conclusion.

Correct Answer:
We reject H0,because tb1 = 4.00 and p-value = .0103 < .05.Thus,we conclude that there is sufficient evidence that dollars spent on advertising is a useful linear predictor of the grocery store sales.
