Consider the following data sample from the Consumer Report on Restaurant Satisfaction. The variable TYPE indicates whether the restaurant is Italian or Seafood/steakhouse. The variable PRICE indicates average amount paid per person for dinner and drinks (in dollars). The variable SCORE reflects overall customer satisfaction, with a value of 100 indicating completely satisfied. A regression analysis is conducted in several steps to find out whether type of restaurant and price explains Score (customer’ satisfaction).

7. How important you think the variable DTYPE is in explaining SCORE?
(6) Statistical significance of the coefficients for MODEL 2
Variable Price has a p value of 0.012. This value is less than 0.05 significance level, so the variable Price is statistically significant.
Variable Dtype has a p value of 0.057. This value is more than 0.05 significance level, so the variable Dtype is not statistically significant.
(7) We can see that the variable Dtype has a p value of 0.057. This shows that the p value is more than 0.05 significance level, so the variable Dtype is not statistically significant.
Therefore, we can say that the variable DTYPE is not important in explaining SCORE as it is not significant.
