Spring is a peak time for selling houses. The file SpringHouses contains the selling price, number of bathrooms, square footage, and number of bedrooms of 26 homes sold in Ft. Thomas, Kentucky, in spring 2018 (realtor.com website) Click on the datafile logo to reference the data. DATA file a. The Excel output for the estimated regression equation that can be used to predict the selling price given the number of bathrooms, square footage, and number of bedrooms in the house: SUMMARY OUTPUT Multiple R R Square Adjusted R Square Standard Error Observations ANOVA Regression statistics Regression Residual Total Multiple R R Square ANOVA Adjusted R Square Standard Error Observations 0.7429 0.5519 0.4907 61948.6931 Regression statistics Regression Residual Total df Intercept Sq Ft Beds Lower 95% 0.9353 -145129.5298 Intercept Baths 0.9528 -49383.5243 0.0180 Sq Ft Beds 0.0326 Does the estimated regression equation provide a good fit to the data?

Refer to the Buena School bus data. Develop a regression equation that expresses the relationship between age of the bus and maintenance. The age of the bus is the inde- pendent variable. Draw a scatter diagram. What does this diagram suggest as to the relationship between the two variables? Is it direct or indirect? Does it appear to be strong or weak? Develop a regression equation. How much does an additional year add to the main- tenance cost. What is the estimated maintenance cost for a 10-year-old bus? Conduct a test of hypothesis to determine whether the slope of the regression line is greater than zero. Use the .05 significance level. Interpret your findings from parts (a), (b), and (c) in a brief report.
