Question

The following data give the selling price, sqare footage, number of bedrooms, and age of houses that have sold in a neighborhood in the past 6 months.

Develop three regression models to predict the selling price based upon each of the other factors individually. Which of these is best?

Use the data from the chart and develop a regression model to predict selling price based on the square footage and number of bedrooms. use this to predict the selling price of 2000 square foot house with 3 bedrroms and compare this model wth the models in the above problem . should the nuber of bedrooms be included in the model? why or why not?

Selling price = 182,504.7044 -2,424.9137 *age.

The percentage variance explained by the model is 70.3%.

The models by square footage or age are better because the variances explained by the two are almost same.

Use the data from the chart and develop a regression model to predict selling price based on the square footage and number of bedrooms. use this to predict the selling price of 2000 square foot house with 3 bedrroms and compare this model wth the models in the above problem . should the number of bedrooms be included in the model? why or why not?
