a) Develop a scatter diagram for these data with salary as the independent variable.
b) What does the scatter diagram developed in part a) indicate about the relationship between salary and bonus?
c) Use the least squares method to develop the estimated regression equation.
d) Provide an interpretation for the slope of the estimated regression equation.
e) Predict the bonus for a vice president with an annual salary of $120,000.
f) Compute SST, SSR, and SSE
g) Compute the coefficient of determination r2. Comment on the goodness of fit.
h) What is the value of the sample correlation coefficient?
i) Develop the null and alternative hypothesis to test the linear relationship between salary and bonus
j) At the .05 level of significance, determine whether salary and bonus are linearly related.
