In 2011 home prices and mortgage rates dropped so low that in a number of cities the monthly cost of owning a home was less expensive than renting. The following data show the average asking rent for 10 markets and the monthly mortgage on the median priced home (including taxes and insurance) for 10 cities where the average monthly mortgage payment was less than the average asking rent (The Wall Street Journal, November 26–27, 2011).Click on the datafile logo to reference the data.
Enter negative values as negative numbers.
a. Develop the estimated regression equation that can be used to predict the monthly mortgage given the average asking rent (to 2 decimals).The regression equation is:Mortgage ($) = + Rent ($)
A please. Scatter diagram included.
You recently received a job with a company that manufactures an automobile anti theft device. To conduct an advertising campaign for the product, you need to make a claim about the number of automobile thefts per year. Since the population of various cities in the United States varies, you decide to use rates per 10,000 people. (The rates are based on the number of people living in the cities.) Your boss said that last year the theft rate per 10,000 people was 44 vehicles. You want to see if it has changed. The following are rates per 10,000 people for 36 randomly selected locations in the United States. Assume σ = 30.3.
