A Research Project Was Conducted to Study the Effect of Smoking

Multiple Choice

A research project was conducted to study the effect of smoking and weight upon resting pulse rate.The response variable is coded as 1 when the pulse rate is low and 0 when it high.Smoking is also coding as 1 when smoking and 0 when not smoking.Shown below is the Minitab output from a logistic regression.
