Given a dataset of household sizes and their respective trip rates, identify a linear regression model that predicts trip rates based on household size. Include steps for calculation.
💡 Hint: Be prepared to calculate means and apply regression formulas.
Discuss how trip generation predictions might change if new variables were introduced, such as population density or local employment rates. Provide a justification based on regression analysis principles.
💡 Hint: Consider how each factor could influence overall travel dynamics.
