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 = 58 + 0.42*(midterm score) From the choices below, the best interpretation of the intercept is: A student who scored a 0 on the final is expected to score a 58 on the midterm For every additional 1-point increase in a student's final exam score, the corresponding midterm score increases by 0.42 points A student who scored a 0 on the midterm is expected to score a 58 on the final If the final exam score is a 0, the expected midterm score would be 138 If the final exam score is a 0, the expected midterm score would be -138 For every additional 1-point increase in a student's midterm score, the corresponding final exam score increases by 0.42 pointsExplanation / Answer
option (3) is correct interpretation.
