Multiple regression is used when we want to predict the value of a variable based on the value of two or more other variables.

Hence it is used in

1.predicting next year's salary of a free-agent baseball player, given the player's previous season's salary and the player's age.

2.predicting a 40-year-old man's height, in centimeters, given his shoe size and his weight, in kilograms

In this two situations we can only use multiple regression.

Thank you.
