d.
Find the coefficient of multiple determination.
Give the conclusion stating the importance of lubrication regimen.
d.
Answer to Problem 54E
The coefficient of multiple determination is 74.1%
The lubrication regimen is not important because there is not much of a difference in the coefficient of multiple determination even after removing the two variables corresponding to lubrication.
The two variables corresponding to lubrication shows no effect and need not be included in the model as long as the other predictors BHP and suppliers were retained.
Explanation of Solution
Given info:
The SSE after removing the variables corresponding to lubrication regimen is 48.426.
Calculation:
Coefficient of determination:
The coefficient of determination tells the total amount of variation in the dependent variable explained by the independent variable. It
Substitute 48.426 as SSE and 186.980 as SST.

That is, the two dummy variables corresponding to lubrication are not significant to explain the variation in springback from wall opening angle.
Alternative hypothesis:
That is, At least one of the two dummy variables corresponding to lubrication is significant to explain the variation in springback from wall opening angle.

- Choose Probability value as 0.05.
- Click OK.
Output obtained from MINITAB is given below:
Conclusion:
Coefficient of determination:
The coefficient of determination for the whole model including the two variables corresponding to lubrication is 77.5% whereas the coefficient of multiple determination after removing the two variables corresponding to lubrication is 74.1%. Thus, there is a slight drop in coefficient of multiple determination.
