The fitted model is Yt = 9.718 - 0.2216×t

When t=25( year =2011). Predicted Rate =9.718 - 0.2216*25 =4.178

= 4.18 ( two decimals)

C.

Determine the​ Durbin-Watson statistic ​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.)

Durbin-Watson statistic= 0.60

D.

Identify the critical values. ​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.)

Critical values for n=24 and K=1 is ( 1.24, 1.45).

Obtained Durbin-Watson statistic value = 0.60 which is less than the lower limit dL 1.24.

This suggests there is presence of positive auto correlation.
