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

4-23

Use the data in Problem 4-22 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 a 2,000-square-foot house with 3 bedrooms. Compare this model with the models in Problem 4-22. Should the number of bedrooms be included in the model? Why or why not?

4-24

Use the data in Problem 4-22 and develop a regression model to predict selling price based on the square footage, number of bedrooms, and age. Use this to predict the selling price of a 10-year-old, 2,000-square-foot house with 3 bedrooms.
