Answer to Problem 1FP

The equation of the regression line used to predict values of the criterion variable is Y^=bX+a.

Explanation of Solution

Justification: The statistical procedure that is used for determining regression equation for the set of data points is called regression. This regression equation is used for predicting the values of one factor based on the values of the second factor that are known in the population. The regression equation is given by,

Y^=bX+a

In the equation, b denotes the slope, a denotes the y-intercept, X is the predictor variable, Y^ is the estimated criterion variable.
