Suppose the advertising cost


and sales are correlated, then
we can predict the future sales

variables corresponding to years

Problem : Is there a significant relationship between


the number of absences and the grades of
15 students in English class?

Hypotheses :

Template

Ho:

There is no significant relationship between the


number of absences and the grades of 15 students
in English class.

H1:

There is a significant relationship between the


number of absences and the grades of 15 students
in English class.

Level of significance :

df = n 2
= 15 2

Decision Rule :

If the r computed value is greater than or beyond


the critical value, reject Ho.

Conclusion :

The computed r value of is beyond the critical value


of at level of significance with degrees of freedom, so the
null hypothesis is rejected.

This means that there is a significant relationship


between the number of absences and the grades of
students in English. Since the value of r is negative, it
implies that students who had more absences had lower
grades.

Suppose we want to predict the grade of the student

who has incurred 7 absences . To get the value of x, the


simple linear regression analysis will be used.

69 is the grade of
the student with
7 absences.

Remarks:

WINTER

It is important to remember that the


values of a and Template
b are only estimates of the
corresponding parameters of a and b.

To justify the assumption of linearity, a


test for linearity of regression should be
performed.
If there are two or more independent
variables, the regression equation becomes
+

Significance Test in Simple


Linear Regression
The significance of the slope of the regression line is to determine if
the regression model is usable.
If the slope is not equal to zero, then we can use the regression
model to predict the dependent variable for any value of the
independent variable.
If the slope is equal to zero, we do not use the model to make
predictions.
The scatter plot amounts to determining whether or not the slope
of the line of the best fit is significantly different from a horizontal
line or not.
A horizontal line means there is no association between two
variables, that is
In testing for significance in simple linear regression, the null
hypothesis is H0: and the alternative hypothesis is H1:

Given are two sets of data on the number of customers
(in hundreds) and sales (in thousand of pesos) for a given
period of time from ten eateries. Find the equation of the
regression line which can predict the amount of sales
from the number of customers. Can we conclude that we
can use the model to make such a prediction?

Decision:
Since 8.62 is greater than 3.355, we
reject the H0 or accept the H1. Thus,
the obtained relationship is
significant or is non zero using .005
level.
We can conclude that we can use
the model to predict sales from
population.
