Number of centimetres of insulation as X2, and the presence of a garage as X3.
Is the presence of the independent variable garage significant in predicting heating costs, when
Tested at the 0.05 level of significance?

• A) Since the p-value is less than the level of significance, the null hypothesis is rejected, and so the garage should be included in the analysis.
• B) Since the p-value is less than the level of significance, the null hypothesis is accepted, and so the garage should not be included in the analysis.
• C) Since the p-value is more than the level of significance, the null hypothesis is accepted, and so the garage should not be included in the analysis.
• D) Since the p-value is more than the level of significance, the null hypothesis is rejected, and so the garage should be included in the analysis.
