27. Refer to exercise 9, where an estimade regression equation relating years of experience and annual sales was developed.

At a .05 level of significance, determine whether years of experience and annual sales are related. Sales Person 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Years of Experience 1 3 4 4 6 8 10 10 11 13 Annual sales ($1000s) 80 97 92 102 103 111 119 123 117 136

28. Refer to exercise 10, where an estimade regression equation relating the performance score and the overall rating for notebook PCs was developed. At a .05 level significance, thest whether these two variable are related. Show the ANOVA table. What is your conclusion? Performance score 115 191 153 194 236 184 184 216 overall rating 67 78 79 80 84 76 77 92

185 183 189 202 192 141 187

83 78 77 78 78 73 77

29. Refer to exercise 21, where data on production volume and cost were used to develop an estimade regression equation relating production volume and cost for a paticular manufacturing operation. Using =.05, test whether the production volume is significantly related to the total cost. Show the ANOVA table. What is your conclusion? Production volume(units) 400 450 550 600 700 750 Total cost ($) 4000 5000 5400 5900 6400 7000
