Computer output for fitting a simple linear model is given
below. State the value of the sample slope for this model and give
the null and alternative hypotheses for 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.
The regression equation is Y=83.2-0.0133X.
