Question 178531
In the following regression, X = total assets ($ billions), Y = total revenue ($ billions), and n = 64 large banks. 
(a) Write the fitted regression equation.
Y = 6.5763 + 0.0452X
---------------------------------- 
(b) State the degrees of freedom for a two- tailed test for zero slope, and use Appendix D to find the critical value at α= .05.
df = 62 ; crit. value = 1.96 (I do not have the same D-chart you may have)
---------------------------------- 
(c) What is your conclusion about the slope? 
Since p-value = 1.9E-11, reject hypothesis that the slope is zero
----------------------------------
(d) Interpret the 95 percent confidence limits for the slope.
With 95% confidence we can say the slope is between 0.0342 and 0.0563
---------------------------------- 
(e) Verify that F = t2 for the slope. 
66.97 = 8.8183^2
------------------------------------
(f) In your own words, describe the fit of this regression.
Since R^2 is 51.9% the fit is good.
