veloping more accurate estimates of the monthly rental cost for apartments.

Use the least-squares method to determine the regression coef-ficients b0 and b1.c. Interpret the meaning of b0 and b1 in this problem.d. Predict the mean monthly rent for an apartment that has 800 square feet.e. Why would it not be appropriate to use the model to predict the monthly rent for apartments that have 1,500 square feet?f.

Scatter plot

x---square feet

y---rent

SolutionA:

Kindly check the attached image below:

THERE EXISTS A WEAK POSITIVE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SQUARE FEET AND RENT .

AS SQUARE FEET INCREASES RENT INCREASES

SolutionB:

Rent=0.4932(squarefeet)+992.99

slope=m=0.4932

Y intercept=992.99

SolutionC:

Interpretation of slope:

slope =m=change in rent/change in square foot

For a unit increase in square feet rent increases by 0.4932

Interpretation of y intercept:

when square feet=0 rent is 992.99

Solutiond:

when squarefeet=800

Rent=0.4932(squarefeet)+992.99

=Rent=0.4932(800)+992.99

=1387.55
