TaxesˆTaxes^ =  +  Size.


b. Interpret the slope coefficient.

 

multiple choice

  • As Property Taxes increase by 1 dollar, the size of the house increases by 6.78 ft.
  • As Size increases by 1 square foot, the property taxes are predicted to increase by $6.78.

 


c. Predict the property taxes for a 1,500-square-foot home. (Round coefficient estimates to at least 4 decimal places and final answer to 2 decimal places.)
