Question

ecologists to identify regions of greatest species richness could have an impact on the preservation of genetic diversity, a major objective of the World Conservation Strategy. A study used a sample of n 25 in the estimated regression equation 3.89 + 0.033X1 + 0.024x2 + 0.023x3-0.0080x4-0.13xs-0.7206 ecies richness, xi-watershed area, x2-shore width, x,-poor drainage % x4-water color total color units x5 sand %), and x6-alkalinity. The SSR and SSE have been calculated to be: ssR 812.5 25. of the variation in y can be explained by the model? R2 %, (Give your value in percent and round to two decimal places.) model utility F test. least one among 1, ' A is zero least one among A, , 5 is not zero test statistic value and obtain a p value.

There is significant evidence at least one explanatory variable is a significant predictor of species richness. d to use the appropriate table in the Appendix of Tables to answer this question.

Explanation / Answer

R2 =SSR/(SSR+SSE)=812.5/(812.5+325)=71.43%

for hypothesis: 3rd option is correct

f =(SSR/(p))/(SSE/(n-p-1)) =(812.5/6)/(325/(25-6-1))=7.5

for above p value =0.0004

reject HO there is significant evidence .....
