TABLE 17-6 A Weight-Loss Clinic Wants to Use Regression Analysis to Build

question 131

Multiple Choice

TABLE 17-6
A weight-loss clinic wants to use regression analysis to build a model for weight loss of a client (measured in pounds) .Two variables thought to affect weight loss are client's length of time on the weight-loss program and time of session.These variables are described below:
Y = Weight loss (in pounds)
X1 = Length of time in weight-loss program (in months)
X2 = 1 if morning session,0 if not
X3 = 1 if afternoon session,0 if not (Base level = evening session)
Data for 12 clients on a weight-loss program at the clinic were collected and used to fit the interaction model:
Y = β0 + β1X1 + β2X2 + β3X3 + β4X1X2 + β5X1X3 + ε
Partial output from Microsoft Excel follows:
