The effect of sealer plate temperature (X1) and sealer plate clearance (X2) in a soap wrapping machine affects the percentage of wrapped bars (Y) which pass inspection. Use the appropriate test to determine whether X1 can be dropped from the regression model given that X2 is retained. Use level of significance 0.05. Find the value of appropriate test statistic, the critical vale and the P-value. choose the one correct answer from the four options below.
