EXAMPLE 11.25 Predicting Asking Price

homes04

CASE 11.3 Software tells us that the highest available increases as we increase the number of explanatory variables as follows:

Variables
1 0.44
2 0.57
3 0.62
4 0.66
5 0.72
13 0.77

Because of collinearity problems, models with 14 or all 15 explanatory variables cannot be used. The highest possible is 77%, using 13 explanatory variables.
