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 mi/gal). The predictor (x) variables are WT (weight in pounds), DISP (engine
displacement in liters), and HWY (highway fuel consumption in mi/gal). Which regression equation is best for predicting city fuel consumption? Why?

Choose the correct answer below.
O A. The equation CITY = 6.65 - 0.00161WT + 0.675HWY is best because it has a low P-value and the highest adjusted value of R2.
O B. The equation CITY = 6.83 - 0.00132WT - 0.253DISP + 0.654HWY is best because it has a low P-value and the highest value of R?.
OC. The equation CITY = 6.83 - 0.00132WT - 0.253DISP + 0.654HWY is best because it uses all of the available predictor variables.
O D. The equation CITY = - 3.14 + 0.823HWY is best because it has a low P-value and its R2 and adjusted R? values are comparable to…
Type the regression equation for “Area” and “Biomass” in context into your document.
Interpret the slope of the regression line (in context of this data set) for “Area” and “Biomass”.
is it meaningful to interpret the y-intercept for “Area” and “Biomass”? Why or why not?
Lillian conducted a small survey of her friends and family. She asked them how many hours per week they spend reading digital documents (newspapers, blogs, books, etc.), and their age. She created the scatter plot below with the results she obtained.
Draw the regression line that best represents this scatter plot and determine its equation.

The model was developed using recent sales in a particular neighborhood. The price (y) of the house is based on the size (square footage =X) of the house. The model is : Y=12,973+37.65X The coefficient of correlation for the model is 0.73 a) Using the above model the selling price of a house that is 1760 square feet= $79,237 b) a 1760 square foot house recently sold for $92,000 which is dfiferent than predicted value.
