The section Use Regression with One Predictor showed you how to build simple regression models consisting of one predictor variable and one response variable. Multiple regression predicts the average response variable using two or more predictor variables.
This example uses the Candy Bars.jmp data table, which contains nutrition information for candy bars.
Use multiple regression to predict the average response variable using these three predictor variables.

Another measure of model accuracy is the RSq value (which appears below the plot in Figure  .28). The RSq value measures the percentage of variability in calories, as explained by the model. A value closer to 1 means a model is predicting well. In this example, the RSq value is 0.99.
