a county real estate appraiser wants to develop a statistical model to predict the
appraised value of houses in a section of the county called East Meadow. One of the
many variables thought to be an important predictor of appraised value is the number
of rooms in the house. Consequently, the appraiser decided to fit the simple linear
regression model :
E(y) = B0 + B1x,
where y = appraised value of the house (in thousands of dollars) and x = number of
rooms. using data collected for a sample of n = 86 houses in East Meadow, the
