question 77

Multiple Choice

TABLE 16-12
A local store developed a multiplicative time-series model to forecast its revenues in future quarters,using quarterly data on its revenues during the 5-year period from 2008 to 2012.The following is the resulting regression equation:
log10

Alternative Hypothesis

A statement that suggests there is a statistically significant difference between two or more data sets, contrary to the null hypothesis.
