PART II: WRITING QUESTIONS (Please answer on the ANSWER SHEET)
Question 1:
A real estate agent records for each listing the size of the house (in square feet), X1, the number of bedrooms,
X2, the annual average income, X3, in the respective neighborhood to see whether and how these measures
relate to the price, Y. The data for the 25 houses are collected and the multiple - regression is carried out with
α = 0.05.

X2 79.032 12.736
X3 -1.26 0.795
Assume that, X1, X2 and X3 are independent.
a. Fill up the ANOVA table. Is there any relationship between dependent variable Y and independent
variables X1, X2 and X3? Why?
b. Is the regression equation good? State your reasons.
c. Based on the coefficient table, which variables should be removed from that equation? Why?
Question 2:
Six animals are measured mean blood pressures during a pre-treatment control period, then while administering
a neural stimulus alone, and in the presence of a placebo drug designed to inhibit the effect of neural
stimulation. The data are given below
Control Stimulus Placebo

121 116 118
98 116 109

Conduct the ANOVA to test whether there is any different between mean blood pressures for four methods.
Given α = 0.05.
Question 3:
A company applies a new method to produce their products. They want to test the new method before adopting
it, because it can reduce the weight of their products.
