question 82

True/False

TABLE 15-3
A chemist employed by a pharmaceutical firm has developed a muscle relaxant. She took a sample of 14 people suffering from extreme muscle constriction. She gave each a vial containing a dose (X) of the drug and recorded the time to relief (Y) measured in seconds for each. She fit a "centered" curvilinear model to this data. The results obtained by Microsoft Excel follow, where the dose (X) given has been "centered."

The results obtained by Microsoft Excel follow, where the dose (X) given has been  centered.     -Referring to Table 15-3, suppose the chemist decides to use a t test to determine if there is a significant difference between a linear model and a curvilinear model that includes a linear term. If she used a level of significance of 0.01, she would decide that the linear model is sufficient.
