Expert Solution
Introduction

Since you have posted a question with multiple subparts, we will solve first three subparts for you. To get remaining subparts solved, please repost the question and mention the subparts to be solved. 

Regression explain the relationship between the independent and dependent variable. Every regression equation has only one dependent variable. For the multiple regression, the number of independent variable varies. It has two regressor coefficients, they are slope and intercept value.
