Answer to Question 1

d
RATIONALE: In a nonlinear problem, the rate of change of the objective function with respect to the right-hand side of a constraint is given by the Lagrangian multiplier.

Answer to Question 2

c
RATIONALE: The three quantities are related as SST = SSR + SSE. Substituting the values, we get SSR=18.43.
