Question

Regarding linear equations with one independent variable:

Which is the general form of such an equation:

A. y=b0x+b1z
B. y=b0/x+b1
C. y=b0xb1
D. y=b0+b1x
E. y=b0+b1x2

The rest of the problem refers to the expression you selected above.

The letter b0 is

A. a constant
B. the independent variable
C. the dependent variable
D. none of the above

The letter b1 is

A. a constant
B. the independent variable
C. the dependent variable
D. none of the above

The letter x is

A. a constant
B. the independent variable
C. the dependent variable
D. none of the above

The letter yy is

A. a constant
B. the independent variable
C. the dependent variable
D. none of the above

Explanation / Answer

1) General form of the regression equation is

y = b0 + b1x

Here y is dependent variable and x is the independent variable.

b0: - Intercept

b1: - slope.

So the correct option is D. y=b0+b1x

2) b0 is intercept and which is constant.

Because it has fixed value it is not variable.

So the correct option is A. a constant

3) The letter b1 is slope and which is also constant.

Because it has fixed value it is not variable.

So the correct option is A. a constant.

4) The letter x is exploratory variable. And which is independent variable.

So the correct option is B. the independent variable.

5) The letter y is response variable and which is the dependent variable.

By using the model we predict the value of y.

So the correct option is C. the dependent variable.
