The Manager of a car plant wishes to
investigate how the plant's electricity usage
depends upon the plant's production.
Calculate the relationship between the
variables.
The electric power consumed each month by a chemical plant is thought to be related to the average ambient temperature (x₁), the
number of days in the month (x₂), the average product purity (x3), and the tons of product produced (x4). The past year's historical data
are available and are presented in the following table:
