Question 1 (5 Marks)
The 2009 Survey of Household Spending (SHS) was conducted from January until March 2010 and collects information about the spending habits, dwelling characteristics and household equipment of Canadian households during 2009. The data was obtained by asking people in the 10 provinces and three territories to recall their expenditures for the previous calendar year (spending habits) or as of the time of the interview (dwelling characteristics and household equipment). Using the dataset “Q1.sav” do the variables “Sex of reference person” and “Household income before taxes” predict
“Amount spent on cellular services”? Provide the regression equation. Do Males or Females spend the most on cellular services? If I am Female and have a “Household income before taxes” of $65,000 how much am I predicted to spend on cellular services?
