1) Please find the partially completed multiple regression analysis below, which explores the relationship between the sales (in hundreds) and the independent variables price(in dollars), promotional expenditure(in hundreds of dollars) and the quality score ( 0-100) for a very popular Christmas season toy.
The regression equation is
Sales = 343.2 - 0.23* Price + 2.7* Promotional exp + 0.22* Quality
Predictor Coef Standard Error/ SE Coef VIF
Constant 343.20 / 62.59 / 0
Price -0.23358 / 0.0373 / 2.415
Promotional exp 2.704 / 1.4 / 1.047
Quality 0.2204 / 0.1429 / 10.387

Answer questions A - F based on the above analysis
A) Is the factor Promotional Exp significant at α=0.05 ? Perform the test of hypothesis and show all the relevant calculations.
B) Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the population slope of sales with Quality showing all the relevant calculations and also state whether 'Quality' is a significant factor in predicting sales.
C) What is the value of the partial F test statistic (FSTAT) for the independent variable 'Price' (show all the relevant calculations)?
D) Is there a problem with multi-collinearity among independent variables in this analysis? Explain.
E) What is the adjusted R2 value?(show all the relevant calculations)
F) Based on the ANOVA presented, perform the overall F- test showing all the relevant calculations and also state if the regression is significant? (α=0.05)
