| d. | Determine the coefficient of determination. |

a. Develop the estimated regression equation.
Answer:
The estimated regression equation is:

b. At α = .05, test for the significance of the slope
Answer: Since the p-value for the slope is 0.0821, which is greater than 0.05, therefore, the slope coefficient is not significant at the 0.05 significance level.
c. At α = .05, perform an F test.
Answer: Since the p-value for the F- statistic is 0.0821, which is greater than 0.05, therefore, the regression equation is not significant at the 0.05 significance level.
d. Determine the coefficient of determination.
Answer: The coefficient of determination is:
