You work for a parts manufacturing company and are tasked with exploring the wear lifetime of a certain bearing. You gather data on oil viscosity used and load. You see the regression output given below. Predictor Coef Stdev t-ratio P

What is the correct conclusion about the regression slopes based solely on the F-test

We reject the Null and conclude that There is significant evidence that the slope values are greater than 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the ANOVA output given :

The F critical value can be obtained thus ;

F(df regression, df error)

Using an α-value of 0.01

F(2, 12) at α = 0.01 is 6.927

The F statistic as obtained from the ANOVA table = 134.65

Since, F statistic > F critical we reject the Null and conclude that slope values are significantly > 0

Similarly,

Using the Pvalue :

The Pvalue of the slope are extremely small :

Viscosity <0.0001

Load <0.0001

At α = 0.01, 0.025

The Pvalue < α ; The null will be rejected.

x = 12

y = 15
