Lenny's, a national restaurant chain, conducted a study of the factors affecting demand (sales). The following variables were defined and measured for a random sample of 30 of its restaurants:
(NOTE: This question and the 3 that follow it, may require the use of statistical tables.)
---Y = Annual restautant sales ($000)
---X1 = Disposable personal income (per capita) of residents within a 5 mile radius
---X2 = License to sell beer/wine (0=No, 1=Yes)
---X3 = Location (within one-half mile of interstate highway; 0 = No, 1 = Yes)
---X4 = Population (within a 5 mile radius)
---X5 = Number of competing restaurants within a 2 mile radius.

The data were entered into a computerized regression program and the following results were obtained:
