$\begin{array}{l}\text { Regression Analysis }\\\begin{array}{lr}\hline {\text { Regression Statistics }} \\\hline \text { Multiple R } & 0.63 \\\text { R Square } & 0.40 \\\text { Adjusted R Square } & 0.23 \\\text { Standard Error } & 50.00 \\\text { Observations } & 15.00\end{array}\end{array}$
ANOVA
$\begin{array}{lrrrrrr} & d f & & S S & M S & F & \text { Significance } F \\\hline \text { Regression } & 3 & & 5994.24 & 2.40 & 0.12 \\\text { Residual } & 11 & 27496.82 & & & \\\text { Total } & & 45479.54 & & &\end{array}$

$\begin{array}{lrrrrrrr} & \text { Coefficients } & \text { Standard } & t \text { Stat } & \text { P-value } & \text { Lower 99.0\% } & \text { Upper 99.0\% } \\\hline \text { Intercept } & {\text { Error }} & & & & & \\\text { AGE } & 123.80 & 48.71 & 2.54 & 0.03 & -27.47 & 275.07 \\\text { TICKETS } & -0.82 & 0.87 & -0.95 & 0.36 & -3.51 & 1.87 \\\text { DENSITY } & 21.25 & 10.66 & 1.99 & 0.07 & -11.86 & 54.37 \\& -3.14 & 6.46 & -0.49 & 0.64 & -23.19 & 16.91\end{array}$
