a. Write the prediction equation for the interaction model.
b. Test the overall utility of the interaction model using the global $F$ -test at $\alpha = .05$ .
c. Test the hypothesis (at $\alpha = .05 )$ that $x _ { 1 }$ and $x _ { 2 }$ interact positively.
d. Estimate the change in $y$ for each additional 1 -unit increase in $x _ { 1 }$ when $x _ { 2 } = 6$ .
