please provide details to support solution:

A recent 10-year study conducted by a research team at the Medical School was conducted to assess how age, blood pressure, and smoking relate to the risk of strokes. Assume that the following data are from a portion of this study. Risk is interpreted as the probability (times 100) that the patient will have a stroke over the next 10-year period. For the smoking variable, define a dummy variable with 1 indicating a smoker and 0 indicating a nonsmoker.

(a) Develop an estimated multiple regression equation that relates risk of a stroke to the person's age, blood pressure, and whether the person is a smoker.
Letx1represent the person's age.
Letx2represent the person's blood pressure.
Letx3represent whether the person is a smoker.
If required, round your answers to four decimal places. For subtractive or negative numbers use a minus sign even if there is a + sign before the blank. (Example: -300)
=+x1+x2+x3
(b) Is smoking a significant factor in the risk of a stroke? Explain. Use a 0.05 level of significance.
