Choose TWO variables that you feel are correlated and explain why you feel that they are correlated. Do you suspect the relation is positive or negative? Why? Which would be considered the independent variable, which the dependent variable? Why?

Run a regression analysis in Excel and provide the results in your post along with your raw data. Looking at the R2 value, explain what this indicates about the strength of the relation. Then write out your Regression Equation, state if your p-value and conclusion.

Solutions

Expert Solution

Since the Price and Mileage per Gallon must have some relationship. Generally expensive cars give less mileage because they have high power engine, torque and acceleration.

Thus the relationship between them is suspect to be negative.

Mileage is dependent variable and price is independent variable. Because price of car increases as power of engine increases which lowers the mileage per gallons.

Also there is positive relationship between MPG(city) and MPG on Highway.

Regression analysis

Since R2 = 0.2698 which can be interpreted as 26.98%of the variation in the mileage is explained by the price.

For MPG city and MPG highway

The fitted regression model explain 97.54% of the variation in the MPG highway for given MPG city.
