Question
A sample of 10 blue-collar employees at a production plant was taken. Each employee was asked to assess his or her
own job satisfaction (x) on a scale of 1 to 10. In addition, the numbers of days absent (y) from work during the last year
were found for these employees. The sample regression line, given below, was estimated by least squares for these
10

data. Also found were x = 6.8, Σ (x₁ - x)² = 75.6, and SSE = 31. Complete parts a and b below.

Find the p-value.
The p-value is 0.0007.
(Round to four decimal places as needed.)
Since the p-value is less than the significance level,
satisfaction has a negative linear effect on absenteeism.
