a Prepare a regression equation that uses vehicle horsepower and vehicle weight as independent variables. Let X, be defined as horsepower and X, be defined as weight
ŷ= 1 + x + x2
(Round to four decimal places as needed)
Interpret the coefficients
For a fixed
V
a 1-unit increase in
V leads to an expected increase of approximately
miles per gallon
b Prepare a second biased regression with vehicle weight not included
(Round to four decimal places as needed)
What can you conclude about the coefficient of horsepower?
In the simple regression model a 1-unit increase in
V leads to a decrease of approximately
miles per gallon​
