The new manager of an Information Technology company collected data for a sample of 20 computer programmers in the organization to perform a multiple regression analysis on the structure of their salaries. The aim of this manager in this exercise is to determine if the Salary (y) of a hired computer programmer was related to the years of Experience () in the organization and also the Score () of the programmers during their first interview aptitude test scores. The years of experience, score on the aptitude test and the corresponding annual salary (in thousands of Ghana cedis) for a sample of the 20 programmers is shown in the Regression statistics table below;
