A business analyst developed a multiple regression model to predict the average price of a meal at a restaurant in a western city. After exploring several variables that might affect the average price, the analyst decides the three most important variables that decide the price of a meal are (1) how long the restaurant is open (i.e., how many hours in a week), (2) how likely you are to be seated when you get to the restaurant, and (3) whether the restaurant is downtown or not. Use the following data and a computer to develop such a model. Comment on the output.
