Question

Multiple Choice: In testing the hypotheses H0: B1 = 0 vs. Ha: B1 ≠ 0 with alpha = 0.05, the calculated value of our test statistic is T = 3.45. The critical value from our t-table is t0.025 = 2.306. What conclusion should be made?

a) Do not reject H0, there is evidence that X contributes information to the prediction of Y.

b) Reject H0, there is evidence that X contributes information to the prediction of Y.

c) Do not reject H0, there is not evidence that X contributes information to the prediction of Y.

d) Reject H0, there is not evidence that X contributes information to the prediction of Y.

Answer 1

Option B is correct

Since the test statistic(3.45)>t critical value(2.306)

We reject the null hypothesis.
