Question

In the equation of the regression line (y = bx + a):
A)b pis the x-intercept and a is the slope. b)b is the y-intercept and a is the slope. C)a is the x-intercept and b is the slope. d)a is the y-intercept and b is the slope. In the equation of the regression line (y = bx + a):
A)b pis the x-intercept and a is the slope. b)b is the y-intercept and a is the slope. C)a is the x-intercept and b is the slope. d)a is the y-intercept and b is the slope. In the equation of the regression line (y = bx + a):
A)b pis the x-intercept and a is the slope. b)b is the y-intercept and a is the slope. C)a is the x-intercept and b is the slope. d)a is the y-intercept and b is the slope.

Explanation / Answer

The equation is y = bx + a.

The slope is b.

The y-intercept is a.

Correct answer is d).
