A Large National Bank Charges Local Companies for Using Their $$E ( y ) = \beta _ { 0 } + \beta _ { 1 } x .$$

question 111

Multiple Choice

A large national bank charges local companies for using their services. A bank official reported the results of a regression analysis designed to predict the bankʹs charges (y) , measured in dollars per
Month, for services rendered to local companies. One independent variable used to predict service
Charge to a company is the companyʹs sales revenue (x) , measured in $ million. Data for 21
Companies who use the bankʹs services were used to fit the model $$E ( y ) = \beta _ { 0 } + \beta _ { 1 } x .$$
The results of the simple linear regression are provided below.
$$\left. \hat { y } = 2,700 + 20 x , s = 65,2 \text {-tailed } p \text {-value } = .064 \text { (for testing } \beta _ { 1 } \right)$$
Interpret the $p$ -value for testing whether $\beta _ { 1 }$ exceeds 0 .

• A) There is sufficient evidence (at \(\alpha = .05\) ) to conclude that service charge \(( y )\) is positively linearly related to sales revenue \(( x )\).
• B) There is insufficient evidence (at \(\alpha = .05\) ) to conclude that service charge \(( y )\) is positively linearly related to sales revenue \(( x )\).
• C) Sales revenue \(( x )\) is a poor predictor of service charge \(( y )\).
• D) For every \(\$ 1\) million increase in sales revenue \(( x )\), we expect a service charge \(( y )\) to increase \$.064.
