△ Determine situations where multiple regression can be performed. ○ Analyze situation 1 ☼ Multiple regression can be performed. The dependent variable is the monthly auto insurance premium, and the independent variables are the number of accidents and the age of the driver. ○ Analyze situation 2 ☼ Multiple regression cannot be performed. The dependent variable is the average number of points a basketball team scores per game, and there is only one independent variable: the number of wins. ○ Analyze situation 3 ☼ Multiple regression cannot be performed. The dependent variable is the cost of an airline flight, and there is only one independent variable: the distance of the flight. ○ Analyze situation 4 ☼ Multiple regression can be performed. The dependent variable is the current population of a city, and the independent variables are the population in 2000 and the population in 2010. ✧ Multiple regression can be performed in situations 1 and 4. ☺ The situations where multiple regression can be performed are:

  • predicting the monthly auto insurance premium for a driver, given the number of accidents the driver has been involved in in the past 5 years and the age of the driver
  • predicting the current population of a city, given its population in 2000 and its population in 2010
