Expert Solution
Step 1

a)

The explanatory variable is also called as an Independent variable. It explains variations in the response (dependent) variable.

In this case, explanatory variable is 'Row' students sit in their class.

A response variable is a particular quantity that we ask a question about in the study. Response variable in this case is "Final exam score".

(b)

The generalized linear model is given by the equation:

y^=β0+β1xwhere, β0: Intercept             β1:slope
