Explanation / Answer

14. The linear regression method seeks to predict values of a dependent variables based on values of an independent (explanatory) variables. The linear regression equation is given as Y = a + bX, where X is the independent (explanatory) variable and Y is the dependent variable.

15. The explanatory variable is number of nutrients added. The response variable is number of plant species. Here the number of plant species is dependent on number of nutrients added. Thus number of plant species is response variable (a kind of dependent variable) and number of nutrients is explanatory variable (a kind of independent variable).
