During Its Manufacture, a Product Is Subjected to Four Different $\left( x _ { 1 } \right)$

During its manufacture, a product is subjected to four different tests in sequential order. An efficiency expert claims that the fourth (and last) test is unnecessary since its restults can be predicted based on the first three tests. To test this claim, multiple regression will be used to model Test 4 score (y), as a function of Test1 score $\left( x _ { 1 } \right)$ . Test 2 score $\left( x _ { 2 } \right)$ , and Test 3 score $\left( x _ { 3 } \right)$ . [Note: All test scores range from 200 to 800 , with higher scores indicative of a higher quality product.] Consider the model:
$$E ( y ) = \beta _ { 1 } + \beta _ { 1 } x _ { 1 } + \beta _ { 2 } x _ { 2 } + \beta _ { 3 } x _ { 3 }$$
The first-order model was fit to the data for each of 12 units sampled from the production line. The results are summarized in the printout.
