Model 2 is the regression analysis where the dependent variable is Unemploy and the independent variables are Age and Manager.The results of the regression analysis are given below:
-Referring to Table 17-10,Model 1,which of the following is a correct statement?

B) On average,those who are in a management position are estimated to stay jobless shorter by approximately 5.22 weeks while holding constant the effects of all the remaining independent variables.
C) On average,those who are in a management position are estimated to stay jobless shorter by approximately 14.30 weeks while holding constant the effects of all the remaining independent variables.
D) On average,those who are in a management position are estimated to stay jobless shorter by approximately 24.82 weeks while holding constant the effects of all the remaining independent variables.
