Perform a regression analysis between IMR dependent and low

Perform a regression analysis between IMR (dependent) and low weight birth (independent). Fill the following blanks (NO need to copy/paste):

What is the Constant “a”?: 6.841

What is the slope, the Regression coefficient (unstandardized) b? 0.609

What is the p value?: 0.001 Is it significant?       Yes [x]          No [    ]

What is R and R² in this analysis?: R=0.868 R²=0.754

In your own words, describe the relationship between IMR and low weight birth variables. What does R² tell us?

Solution

Yes

Uncreative in low birth weight will lead to an increase in the IMR.

About 75.4% of the total variation in IMR is explained by the low weight birth
