For data that yielded an intercept of 7.54 and a slope of .64, what would be the appropriate linear regression equation?

A) 7.54 = a + .64 (X)
B) 7.54 = a + b (.64)
C) Y = 7.54 + b (.64)
D) Y = 7.54 + .64 (X)

Question

Shaneka Gilliard · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : D, Explanation :  The appropriate linear regression equation would be Y = 7.54 + 0.64(X), where Y is the dependent variable and X is the independent variable. Therefore, the correct option is D. Option A is not including the Y variable, whereas option B is including an extra b variable. Option C is also correct but not in the standard format of Y = a + bx.
