Question

Data Analysis A multiple linear regression model is built, with diastolic blood pressure (mmHG) set as the DV, and gender (male'), weight in mg/d) are independent variables. Male takes a value of 1 for male, and O for female. Given the folowing table, (in pounds), and cholesterol level Beta CoefficientStandardized Significance Coefficient Variable Intercept- Male -50.542 0.000 0.003 0.585 0.030 0.4430.234 18.123 0.124 Weight Cholesterol 0.123 1.180 Question 31 of 34 The coefficient for "male" can be interpreted as: O A. Gender is unrelated to diastolic blood pressure 0 B On average, males have diastolic blood pressures that are 18.12 mmHg higher than females, controlling for other predictors ° C. Males and females have no difference in blood pressure, controlling for other predictors O D. On average, females have diastolic blood pressures that are 18.12 mmHg higher than males, controlling for other predictors

Explanation / Answer

here as male has value 1 and female has value 0 therefore cause coefficient is 18.123 for gender
