R-squared = 97.9521%
S = 2.094847 with 9 - 2 = 7 degrees of freedom  Variable  Coefficient  SE(Coeff)   t-ratio  P-value  Constant 40.7385.8207496.998760.000212 Typing Speed 2.2604330.12353518.297853.61×107\begin{array} { l c l l l } \text { Variable } & \text { Coefficient } & \text { SE(Coeff) } & \text { t-ratio } & \text { P-value } \\\text { Constant } & - 40.738 & 5.820749 & - 6.99876 & 0.000212 \\\text { Typing Speed } & 2.260433 & 0.123535 & 18.29785 & 3.61 \times 10 ^ { - 7 }\end{array}


A) Reading speed = -40.738 + 2.260433 × Typing speed; We estimate that the reading speeds for these secretaries increase about 2.260433 words per minute for each 10 word per minute increase in their typing speed.
B) Typing speed = -40.738 × Reading speed + 2.260433; We estimate that the typing speeds for these secretaries increase about 2.260433 words per minute for each 10 word per minute increase in their reading speed.
C) Reading speed = -40.738 + 2.260433 × Typing speed; We estimate that the reading speeds for these secretaries increase about 22.60433 words per minute for each 1 word per minute increase in their typing speed.
D) Typing speed = -40.738 + 2.260433 × Reading speed; We estimate that the typing speeds for these secretaries decrease about 40.738 words per minute for each 10 word per minute increase in their reading speed.
E) Typing speed = -40.738 × Reading speed + 2.260433; We estimate that the typing speeds for these secretaries decrease about 40.738 words per minute for each 10 word per minute increase in their reading speed.
