explain and solve the questions 3 and 4 demonstrating the theorems involved
A student wishes to estimate the relationship between academic performance and the number of hours to prepare for class assignments and mid-term tests. If the slope of the estimated linear regression line ( Y hat) is zero, then there is no relationship. If True, discuss. If False, discuss.
Question 1
A regression analysis is a statistical package that researchers use to determine a whether a linear relationship exists between the dependent variable and independent variables. If True, discuss. If False, discuss
