(b) The figure shows that more students have secured higher marks. There is
mostly increase in the percentage of students with the increase in the examination
scores.

Answer 2
(a) The sample size for this problem is (Total df + 1) = (39 + 1 + 1) = 41.
(b) At 0.05 level of significance, it can be seen that the value of F is less than the critical
value of F. Thus, there is strong evidence to conclude that demand and unit price are
related.

(c) The coefficient of determination (R2) has been obtained with the help of the following
formula:
R2=1−∑ of Squares of Residuals
Total ∑ of Squares =1− 7035.262
( 354.689+7035.262 ) =0.05
This indicates explanation of 5% variability in the demand by the unit price of the
product.
(d) The coefficient of correlation (R) can be evaluated with the help of the following
formula:
R= √ R2= √ 0.05=0.219
The correlation coefficient indicates a positive relationship between supply and unit
price. Increase in unit price will result in increasing supply.
(e) Predicted supply = 54.076 + (0.029 * 50) = 55.53 units ~ 56 units.

Total 13410.94 15 894.0625
(b) It can be seen that the P-value is less than 0.05, which indicates that there are
significant differences in the productivity of the different products. Program C has
shown the highest productivity. Thus, Allied needs to adopt Program C.
Answer 4
(a) The estimated Regression equation is
Sales (y) = 3.60 + (41.32 * Unit Price (x1)) + (0.01 * Advertisement (x2))

(b) The significance F value from the ANOVA table is 0.053, which is less than 0.10.
Thus, the model is significant overall.
(c) The p-value for unit price is less than 0.10, and thus unit price is significantly related
to sales but the P-value for advertisement is more than 0.10, and thus advertisement is
not significantly related to sales.
(d) The re-estimated regression equation is given by:
Sales (y) = 3.58 + (41.60 * Unit Price (x1))

the unit price of the product, the sales of the product increases by 41.60 units.
