1. Given the data, please construct a multiple linear regression program by MS Excel.

2. Interpret each coefficient of independent variable in the soft drink demand estimated function in question 1.

4. How many cans/capita/year on soft drink should be for a state in which 6-pack price=$1.95, Income/Capita=$23,500, and Mean Temp= 68°F?

5. Now omit the price and temperature from the regression equation. Should a marketing plan for soft drinks be designed that relocates most canned drink machines into low-income neighborhoods? Why or why not?
