Question

In a certain statistics class the past data has indicated that there is a positive, linear relationship between a student's midterm exam score and their subsequent final exam score. The regression model for this relationship is given by: final score = 52 + 0.48*(midterm score) From the choices below, the best interpretation of the intercept is: A student who scored a 0 on the midterm is expected to score a 52 on the final A student who scored a 0 on the final is expected to score a 52 on the midterm For every additional 1-point increase in a student's final exam score, the corresponding midterm score increases by 0.48 points If the final exam score is a 0, the expected midterm score would be 108 For every additional 1-point increase in a student's midterm score, the corresponding final exam score increases by 0.48 points If the final exam score is a 0, the expected midterm score would be -108

Explanation / Answer

For every 1 point increase in student's midterm score, the corresponding final score increases by 0.48 points
