A real estate association in a suburban community would like to study the relationship between the size of a single-family house (as measured by the number of rooms) and the selling price of the house
a. State the multiple regression equation that predicts the selling price, based on the number of rooms and the neighbourhood.
b. Interpret the regression coefficients in (a).
c. Predict the mean selling price for a house with nine rooms that is located in an east-side neighbourhood. Construct a
d. Perform a residual analysis on the model and determine whether the regression assumptions are valid.
e. Is there a residual analysis on the model and determine whether the regression assumptions are valid.
f. At the 0.05 level of significance, determine whether each independent variable makes a contribution to the regression model. Indicate the most appropriate regression model for this set of data.
g. Construct and interpret a
h. Construct and interpret a
i. Compute and interpret the adjusted
j. Compute the coefficients of partial determination and interpret their meaning.
k. What assumption do you need to make about the slope of selling price with number of rooms?
l. Add an interaction team to the model and, at the 0.05 level of significance, determine whether it makes a significant contribution to be the model.
m. On the basis of the results of (f) and (l), which model is most appropriate? Explain.
n. What conclusions can the real estate association reach about the effect of the number of rooms and neighbourhood on the selling price of homes?

- Note: The purpose of this problem below is to use computational techniques (Excelspreadsheet, Matlab, R, Python, etc.) and code the dynamic programming ideas seen inclass. Please provide the numerical answer to the questions as well as a sample of yourwork (spreadsheet, code file, etc.).We consider an N-period binomial model with the following properties: N = 60, thecurrent stock price is S0 = 1000; on each period, the stock price increases by 0.5% whenit moves up and decreases by 0.3% when it moves down. The annual interest rate on themoney market is 5%. (Notice that this model is a CRR model, which means that thebinomial tree is recombining.)(a) Find the price at time t0 = 0 of a (European) call option with strike price K = 1040and maturity T = 1 year.(b) Find the price at time t0 = 0 of a (European) put option with strike price K = 1040and maturity T = 1 year.(c) We consider now, that you are at time t5 (i.e. after 5 periods, which represents 1month later).
