A student used multiple regression analysis to study how family spending (y) is influenced by income
(X1), family size (x2), and additions to savings (x3). The variables y, x1, and x3 are measured in thousands
of dollars. The following results were obtained.
A real estate analyst has developed a multiple regression line, y = 60 + 0.068 x1 – 2.5 x2, to predict y = the market price of a home (in $1,000s), using independent variables, x1 = the total number of square feet of living space, and x2 = the age of the house in years. The regression coefficient of x1 suggests this: __________.
The addition of 1 square foot area of living space results in a predicted increase of $68.00 in the price of the home if the age of the home were held constant
The addition of 1 square foot area of living space results in a predicted increase of $0.068 in the price of the home for homes of different ages
The addition of 1 square foot area of living space results in a predicted increase of $68.00 in the price of the home with the age of the home allowed to vary
The addition of 1 square foot area of living space results in a predicted increase of $0.068 in the price of the home if the age of the home were held constant
Fourteen hikers were surveyed at Algonquin Park, and asked for how many days have you been hikingand far did your travel in that time? The equation for the linear regression line is y+3x + 10.3 where x is the number of days and y is the distance travelled. What does the slope imply? and does this make sense.
