Answer to Question 1

D
The t-test measures the significance of the effect of the individual independent variables, and the p value (for that same variable) indicates how strong the evidence is in favor of the coefficient's not being zero in the population based on one's sample data.

Answer to Question 2

Total quality management is a business strategy that emphasizes market-driven quality as a top priority. Research is important at each of the following stages:
(1) Commitment and exploration stage - exploratory study to determine the quality of customer wants, discover customer problems, and identify the importance of specific attributes. Exploratory study is also useful to determine employees' awareness of quality standards for their job.
(2) Benchmarking stage - conduct a study to measure overall satisfaction and quality rating of specific attributes and to measure employees' actual performance and perceptions about performance.
(3) Initial quality improvement stage - tracking wave 1 measures trends in satisfaction and quality ratings and comparing what is actually happening with what should be happening. Research is also conducted to establish whether the company is conforming to its quality standards.
(4) Continuous quality improvement stage - tracking wave 2 measures trends in satisfaction and quality ratings and trends in quality improvement.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.

Hypertension is a silent killer because it is deadly and has no significant early symptoms. The danger from hypertension is the extra load on the heart, which can lead to hypertensive heart disease and kidney damage. This occurs without any major symptoms until the high blood pressure becomes extreme. Regular blood pressure checks are an important method of catching hypertension before it can kill you.
