1. Twenty-one executives in a large corporation were randomly selected for a study in which several factors were examined to determine their effect on annual salary (expressed in $000s). The factors selected were age (in years), seniority (in years), years of college, number of company divisions they had been exposed to and the level of their responsibility. A regression analysis was performed using a popular spreadsheet with the following results:Constant 23.00371
