Question

Use the following linear regression equation to answer the questions. 
X1=1.9+3.6x2-7.5x3+2.1x4

a) which number is the constant term? List the coefficients with their corresponding explanatory variables. 
constant=
x2 coefficient =
xcoefficient =
xcoefficient =

b) If xand xwere held at fixed but arbitrary values and xincreased by 1 unit. What would be the corresponding change in x1
suppose xincreased by 2 units. What would be the expected change in x1
suppose xdecreased by 4 units. What would be the expected change in x1
c) Suppose that n=13 data points were used to construct the given regression equation and that the standard error for the coefficient of xis 0.433. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the coefficient of x2. (Use 2 decimal places)
