Plot this data on a scatter diagram with median age as the dependent variable. b. Find the correlation coefficient. c. A regression analysis was performed and the resulting regression equation is Median age 31.4 0.272 population. Interpret the meaning of the slope. d. Estimate the median age for a city of 2.5 million people. e. Here is a portion of the regression software output. What does it tell you? Predictor Coef SE Coef T P Constant 31.3672 0.6158 50.94 0.000 Population 0.2722 0.1901 1.43 0.190 f. Using the .10 significance level, test the significance of the slope. Interpret the result. Is there a significant relationship between the two variables? 4
