A real estate agent uses a simple regression model to estimate the value of a home based on square size in which Y is the value of the home in dollars and X is the size in total square feet. The regression
ˆ
equation is Y(hat) = 253000 + 438 X .
Interpret the slope using the units of the problem.
Estimate the value of a home with 1347 square feet.
Will the correlation coefficient be positive or negative in this problem. Explain.

Rhonda Clark, a Slippery Rock, Pennsylvania, real estate developer, has devised a regression model to help determine residential housing prices in northwestern Pennsylvania. 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=13,473+37.65XY=13,473+37.65X The coefficient of correlation for the model is 0.63. Use the model to predict the selling price of a house that is 1,860 square...
Use the following information for the next two problems. A real estate agent is interested in the relationship between the size of a home (in square feet) and Y-the selling price in thousands of dollars). The equation of the least squares regression line is 47.82 +0.061x Which one of the following gives the correct interpretation of the slope? O a. Each additional square foot in the size is accompanied by an increase of 0.061 thousand dollars in the price O...
Which of the following statements is true with respect to a simple linear regression model? a. The regression slope coefficient is the square of the correlation coefficient b. It is possible that the correlation between a y and x variable might be statistically significant, but the regression slope coefficient could be determined to be zero since they measure different things c. The percentage of variation in the dependent variable that is explained by the independent variable can be determined by...
A real estate agent wants to use a multiple regression model to predict the selling price of a home in thousands of dollars) using the following four x variables. Age: age of the home in years Bath: total number of bathrooms LotArea: total square footage of the lot on which the house is built TotRms_AbvGrd: total number of rooms (not counting bathrooms) in the house The agent runs the regression using Excel and gets the following output. Some of the...
A realtor for a residential real estate company in a large city has the business objective to develop a more accurate estimate of the monthly rental cost for apartments. The agent would like to use size of an apartment, as defined by square footage to predict the monthly rental cost. The agent selects a sample of 25 apartments in a particular residential neighborhood and collects the following data (see Rent). b. Run a linear regression using size (in square feet)...
A real estate analyst has developed a multiple regression line, y = 60 + 0.068 x1 – 2.5 x2, to predict the market price of a home (in $1,000s), using two independent variables, x1 = the total number of square feet of living space, and x2 = the age of the house in years. With this regression model, what is the predicted price of a 10-year old home with 2,500 square feet of living space? Dependent / Response Variable Independent...

4. An agent for a residential real estate company in a suburb located outside a major city has the business objective of developing more accurate estimates of the monthly rental cost for apartments. Toward the goal, the agent would like to use the size of an apartment, as defined by square footage to predict the monthly rental cost. The agent selects a sample of 8 one-bedroom apartments and the data are shown. Complete parts (a) through (f). Monthly Rent ($)...
