In the plot of lcarat vs. lprice, there are some bright vertical strips. What do they represent?
vertical strips means same x (or same carat), and bright means more counts; and in this case, bright vertical strips means that the diamonds in the market usually have fixed weight (or carat).
Question #2
If log(price) = a_0 + a_1 * log(carat), what does that say about the relationship between price and carat?
this linear relationship between log(price) and log(carat) indicats that there exists an exponential relationship betweeen price and carat. i.e., the price of the diamond increases exponentially with the increase of the carat of the diamond.
Question #3
Extract the diamonds that have very high and very low residuals. Is there anything unusual about these diamonds? Are they particularly bad or good, or do you think these are pricing errors?
# Use this chunk to place your code for extracting the high and low residuals
high_resid <- diamonds2 %>%
filter(abs(lresid2) >= 1) %>%
add_predictions(mod_diamond2) %>%
mutate(pred = round(2^pred)) %>%
select(carat, price, pred) %>%

## 15 1.03 1262 2644
## 16 2.46 10470 23622seems most of the diamonds with extremely high or low residuals are over-priced.
Question #4
Does the final model, mod_diamonds2, do a good job of predicting diamond prices? Would you trust it to tell you how much to spend if you were buying a diamond and why?
# Use this chunk to place your code for assessing how well the model predicts diamond prices

From the summary, the adjusted R-squared is 0.983 with a p-value < 2.2e-16, we can tell the model is a good prediction; and from the qq plot and residual histogram we can tell that the residuals are approximately normally distributed.
