Question

1) In a regression, the dependent variable and the independent variable must have the same number of observations.

True

False

2) In linear regression, the coefficient is estimated by minimizing:

The scores on the x-axis

The sum of the scores

The sum of the errors

The sum of the squared errors

  

3) Suppose you performed a linear regression on a data set, and got the following result:

Intercept: 2

Coefficient: 3

What is the equation for the regression line?

a

The scores on the x-axis

b

The sum of the scores

c

The sum of the errors

d

The sum of the squared errors

Explanation / Answer

ans=

1) False, because both X(independent) and Y(dependent) variables have contain different data not same data

he DV represents the model’s output or outcome that you are studying. It is usually given the letter “y” and is traditionally graphed on the y-axis. The IV represents the potential causes for variation in the model

2) D) the estimated values of regression equaltion are obtained sum suares of deviation(errors) of observed values and their estimated values

3) C)The regression equation isY=2+3x
