Study the following Excel regression output for an analysis attempting to predict the number of union members in the
Project 7 Math 102
Project 7 Math 102
Here the equation of the regression line is,
Number of union members = 20704.3805 – 0.039 *Total employment
Since R2 for this model is 0.636 so 63.6% of the total variability has been explained by the model.
And the F test statistic for overall significance is 26.25 with a p value 0.00012 implying that the model is significant in predicting the dependent variable.
And the t-test statistic for slope is -5.12 with a p-value 0.00012 implying that the independent variable is significant in predicting the dependent variable.
When labor force is 110,000,
The number of union members = 20704.3805 – 0.039*110 = 20661.4805
