Question:

Minitab was used to fit the complete second-order model
E(y) = β0 + β1x1 + β2x2 + β3x1x2 + β4x21 + β5x22
to n = 39 data points. The printout is shown below.
Minitab was used to fit the complete second-order model
E(y) =

a. Is there sufficient evidence to indicate that at least one of the parameters-β1, β2, β3, β4, and β5 -is nonzero? Test using α = .05.
b. Test H0: β4 = 0 against Ha: β4 ‰  0. Use α = .01.
c. Test H0: β5 = 0 against Ha: β5 ‰  0. Use α = .01.
d. Use graphs to explain the consequences of the tests in parts b and c.
