Observations are taken on sales of a certain mountain bike in 30 sporting goods stores. The regression model was Y = total sales (thousands of dollars), X1 = display floor space (square meters), X2 = competitors’ advertising expenditures (thousands of dollars), X3 = advertised price (dollars per unit). (a) Write the fitted regression equation. (b) Interpret each coefficient. (c) Would the intercept seem to have meaning in this regression? (d) Make a prediction for Sales when FloorSpace = 80, CompetingAds = 100, and Price = 1,200.

For 39 nations, a correlation of 0.887 was found between y = Internet use (%) and x = gross domestic product (GDP, in thousands of dollars per capita). The regression equation is y = -3.68 + 1.73x.
Complete parts (a) through (c).
a. Based on the correlation value, the slope had to be positive. Why?
A. The slope and correlation are positive because gross domestic product could not be negative.
B. The correlation and the slope are positive because the y-intercept is negative.
That is a very unusual fact, because the slope and correlation usually have different signs.
D. Although slope and correlation usually have different values, they always have the same sign.
b. One nation had a GDP of 31.3 thousand dollars and Internet use of 28.5%. Find its predicted Internet use based on the regression equation.

After interviewing salespersons at Harley Davidson dealerships, a
researcher has created a linear regression line to explain the
relationship between a Harley Davidson motorcycle's age (x) and
price (y). The regression has an R² = 87.7%. Write a sentence
summarizing what R² says about this regression.
The age of the motorcycle explains 12.3% of the variation in price.
The age of the motorcycle explains 9.36% of the variation in price.
The age of the motorcycle explains 87.7% of the variation in price.
The price of the motorcycle explains 12.3% of the variation in age.
The price of the motorcycle explains 87.7% of the variation in age.
