Work Step by Step

1) $H_0: β_1=0$ versus $H_1: β_1\ne0$ $t_0=37.49$ with a P-value $\lt0.001\ltα=0.05$. Reject the null hypothesis. 2) $H_0: β_2=0$ versus $H_1: β_2\ne0$ $t_0=7.53$ with a P-value $=0.005\ltα=0.05$. Reject the null hypothesis. 3) $H_0: β_3=0$ versus $H_1: β_3\ne0$ $t_0=1.34$ with a P-value $=0.273\gtα$. Do not reject the null hypothesis. 4) $H_0: β_4=0$ versus $H_1: β_4\ne0$ $t_0=11.60$ with a P-value $=0.001\ltα=0.05$. Reject the null hypothesis
