The accompanying table shows results from regressions performed on data from a random sample of 21 cars. The response y) variable is CITY (fuel consumption in milgal). The predictor (x) variables are WT (weight in pounds). DISP (engine displacement in liters), and HWY (highway fuel consumption in milgal). If only one predictor (x) variable is used to predict the city fuel consumption, which single variable is best? Why? Click the icon to view the table of regression equations. The best variable is V because it has the best combination of V Pvalue,and adjusted R. (Type integers or decimals. Do not round.)
