Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

You are given a dataset containing various features about houses (e.g., square footage, number of bedrooms, location) and would like to predict their prices. Describe how you would approach building and validating a multiple linear regression model.

💡 Hint: Think about the importance of dividing data and how you’d check the model’s performance.

Challenge 2 Hard

Suppose you suspect multicollinearity exists between two features in your dataset. Describe the implications it might have on your regression analysis and ways to detect it.

💡 Hint: Consider methods used in statistical analysis when facing correlated variables.
