Question

Computer output for fitting a simple linear model is given below. State the value of the sample slope for the given model. In testing if the slope in the population is different from zero, identify the p-value and use it (and a 5% significance level) to make a clear conclusion about the effectiveness of the model.

Coefficients:	Estimate	Std.Error	t value	Pr(>|t|)
(Intercept)	821.91	88.38	9.30	0.000
A	-3.804	1.247	-3.05	0.006

Sample slope: Enter your answer; sample slope
p-value: Enter your answer; p-value


Is the model effective?

Answer 1

Sample slope : -3.804

P value = 0.006

P value <0.05

Therefore, model is effective.

Yes
