- Determine the multiple regression equation for the data
- What is the predicted value of the number of weekly riders if: price of bus trips per week = $24; population = $2,000,000; the monthly income of riders = $13,500; and average rate to park your personal vehicle = $150.
- Interpret the coefficient of determination
- At the 5% significance level, determine if the model is useful for predicting the number of weekly riders on public In responding, construct and test any appropriate hypothesis.
- At the 5% significance level, does it appear that price of bus trips per week, population or average rate to park your personal vehicle can be removed from the model as unnecessary? In responding, construct and test any appropriate hypothesis.
