Chapter 14.4, Problem 53E

The article “The Analysis and Selection of Variables in Linear Regression” (Biometrics [1976]: 1–49) reports on an analysis of data taken from issues of Motor Trend magazine. The dependent variable y was gas mileage and there were n = 32 observations. The independent variables were x1 = Engine type (1 = straight, 0 = V), x2 = number of cylinders, x3 = Transmission type (1 = manual, 0 = automatic), x4 = Number of transmission speeds, x5 = Engine size, x6 = Horsepower, x1 = Number of carburetor barrels, x8 = Final drive ratio, x9 = Weight, and x10 = Quarter-mile time. The R2 and adjusted R2 values are given in the accompanying table for the best model using k predictors for k = 1,…, 10.

Which model would you select? Explain your choice and the criteria used to reach your decision.
