Residual standard error: 86270 on 32 degrees of freedom

Multiple R-squared: 0.6703,

Adjusted R-squared: 0.6394

F-statistic: 21.68 on 3 and 32 DF,

p-value: 7.489e-08

a) Intercept=80815.68

Sqft =111.91

Beds=30410.26

Baths=67388.19

c)

We need the price of a 2,257-square-foot home with four bedrooms and three bathrooms.

The equation is

Price=80815.68+111.91 *sqft+30410.26*Beds+67388.19*Baths

Substituting the values we get

Price=80815.68+111.91 *2257+30410.26*4+67388.19*3=
