An analyst has created a multiple regression model for which the dependent variable in the model is credit card charges accrued by a customer in the data set over the past year (y), and the independent variables are the customers annual household income (x1), number of members of the household (x2), and number of years of post-high school education (x3). Figure 7.23 provides Excel output for a multiple regression model estimated using a data set the company created. a. Estimate the corresponding simple linear regression with the customers annual household income as the independent variable and credit card charges accrued by a customer over the past year as the dependent variable. Interpret the estimated relationship between the customers annual household income and credit card charges accrued over the past year. How much variation in credit card charges accrued by a customer over the past year is explained by this simple linear regression model? b.

What does this tell you about multicollinearity in the multiple regression model in Figure 7.23? e. Add the coefficients of determination for the simple linear regression in parts (a), (b), and (c), and compare the result to the coefficient of determination for the multiple regression model in Figure 7.23.
