Instruction 13-13
The education department's regional executive officer wanted to predict the percentage of students passing a Grade 6 proficiency test.She obtained the data on percentage of students passing the proficiency test (% Passing),daily average of the percentage of students attending class (% Attendance),average teacher salary in dollars (Salaries),and instructional spending per pupil in dollars (Spending)of 47 schools in the state.
Following is the multiple regression output with Y = % Passing as the dependent variable,
X₁ = % Attendance,X₂ = Salaries and X₃ = Spending:
$\begin{array}{lr}\hline {\text { Regression Statistics }} \\\hline \text { Multiple R } & 0.7930 \\\text { R Square } & 0.6288 \\\text { Adjusted R } & 0.6029 \\\text { Square } & \\\text { Standard } & 10.4570 \\\text { Error } & \\\text { Observations } & 47\end{array}$
ANOVA
