Question

A major health care organization conducted a study relating the risk of heart attack to a patient's age, blood pressure, and HDL cholesterol. They have hypothesized the following relationship:

                                                Y = ?0 + ?1X1 + ?2X2 + ?3X3

where Y is heart attack risk, Xl is patient's age, X2 is blood pressure, and X3 is HDL level. Data are collected and a regression relationship is determined through the use of the computer. The following Excel output is obtained:

If we decide to use the F statistic to conduct the test of overall usefullness, the correct critical value of the F statistic for alpha=0.05 drawn from the table is????????

Explanation / Answer

df1 = 3 and df2 = 16

alpha = 0.05

using excel

=F.INV.RT(0.05,3,16)

=
