The table 4.4 shows that the mean family size of women
entrepreneurs is composed by 6.5 people; the maximum family size is composed of
16 people compared to the minimum family size which is composed of 1 people.
The total family size of 60 women entrepreneurs is 390. The tables below
analyze how the increase in family affects monthly expenditures of women
entrepreneurs after becoming entrepreneurs.

Table 4.8 indicates the model summary it shows that R square
statistic indicates that 4.8 % of total variation of family size is explained
monthly expenses. It is evident that the total variation is very small since it
is 4.8% not more than 50%.
Table 4.9 which is the ANOVA table indicates that the model is
significant at 95% confidence interval since the p-value is 0.05=0.05.
Table 4.10 indicates the relationship between the increase in
family size and current monthly expenses using a model. The result shows
Y=64120.104+6773.830x1(family size)
As explained by the model, increase in family size by 1 person
influences monthly expenditure by 6,774 because the increase in family size is
followed by increase in education fees, nutrition, and other expenses related
to a large family.
The regression coefficient is statistically significant since
p-value is 0.05=0.05 alpha value and the result is extraordinary since it is
not less or more than 0.05.
