A linear regression analysis was performed in SPSS to evaluate the ability of independent variables full and part-time FTEs, number of Medicare certified beds and urban vs. rural setting to predict dependent variable, occupancy rate. In paragraph, APA-formatted form, interpret the results. Include basic assumptions for regression analysis

a. Dependent Variable: OccRate b. All requested variables entered.
