A nonprofit analyst seeks to determine which variables should be used to predict nonprofit charitable commitment, a nonprofit organization commitment to its charitable purpose. Two independent variables under consideration are Revenue, a measurement of total revenue, in billions of dollars, as a measure of nonprofit size X₁ and Efficiency, a measurement of the percent of private donations remaining after fundraising expenses as a measure of nonprofit fundraising efficiency X₂. The dependent variable Y is Commitment, a measurement of the percent of total expenses that are allocated directly to charitable services. Both variables X₂ and Y are encoded as percents. Data are collected from a random sample of 97 nonprofit organizations, with the results provided in the accompanying table. Complete parts (a) through (c) below. Interpret the meaning of the slope b₂. Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer box within your choice. OA. Holding revenue constant, for each increase of 1% in efficiency, the mean percent of a nonprofit organization's total expenses that are allocated directly to charitable services is predicted to increase by %. (Round to the nearest integer as needed.) OB. Holding efficiency constant, for each increase of $1 billion in revenue, the mean percent of a nonprofit organization's total expenses that are allocated directly to charitable services is predicted to increase by %. (Round to the nearest integer as needed.) OC. The slopes b₂ cannot be interpreted individually.
