In Problem 14.5 on page 542, you used alcohol percentage and chlorides to predict wine quality (stored in VinhoVerde). Using the results from that problem,
a. at the 0.05 level of significance, determine whether each independent variable makes a significant contribution to the regression model. On the basis of these results, indicate the most appropriate regression model for this set of data.

Cascade Pharmaceuticals Company developed the following regression model, using time-series data from the past 33 quarters, for one of its nonprescription cold remedies:
Y=−1.04+0.24X1−0.27X2�=−1.04+0.24�1−0.27�2
where
Y� = quarterly sales (in thousands of cases) of the cold remedy
X1�1 = Cascade's quarterly advertising (× $1,000) for the cold remedy
X2�2 = competitors' advertising for similar products (× $10,000)
Here is additional information concerning the regression model:
sb1=0.042�b1=0.042, sb2=0.070�b2=0.070, R2=0.720�2=0.720, se=1.63��=1.63, F-statistic=31.402F-statistic=31.402, and Durbin-Watson (d) statistic=0.499Durbin-Watson (d) statistic=0.499.
Which of the independent variables (if any) appears to be statistically significant (at the 0.05 level) in explaining sales of the cold remedy? (Hint: t0.05/2,33 - 3=2.042�0.05/2,33 - 3=2.042.) Check all that apply.
