The predicted value of y_i is
Select one:
O a. the value that y_i takes on when x_i equals 0.
O b. the effect that a one-unit change in the dependent variable is expected to have on the independent variable, holding all else constant.
O c. the value of y_i when the slope is multiplied a specific x_i and then that value is added to the intercept.
O d. the observed value of the dependent variable that is associated with a specific value of the independent variable.

- Come up with two variables that, in your view, are related, indicate the name of these variables as well as why these variables are related; determine which variable is the dependent variable and which one is the independent variable. Draw a line graph by hand, labeling the vertical and horizontal axis consistent with your choice of variables. The line in the line graph has to represent, what, in your view, is the relationship between the two variables. Describe your graph verbally in your post (no need to upload the graph itself). Note:- • Do not provide handwritten solution. Maintain accuracy and quality in your answer. Take care of plagiarism. • Answer completely. • You will get up vote for sure.arrow_forwardQ.3 (a) No of Units Consumed 1 2 4 6.

She has very particular preferences, and she must have exactly two spoonfuls of coconut oil for each cup of coffee. Let C be the number of cups of coffee, and O be the number of spoonfuls of coconut oil. Also, let PC be the price of a cup of coffee. Suppose Lynn has $12 to spend on coffee and coconut oil. Also, the price of coconut oil is $.50 per spoonful.a) Graph Lynnâs Price Consumption Curve for prices, PC = $1, PC = $2, and PC = $3. Please put the number of cups of coffee on the horizontal axis, and the number of spoonfuls of coconut oil on the vertical axis. Be sure to label your graph carefully and accurately.b) Graph Lynnâs demand curve for coffee.

- The following graph contains four lines (A, B, C and D), each of which has a slope that is either positive, negative, zero, or infinite. Y-axisX-axisBDCA For each of the following scenarios, indicate whether the relationship between the two variables is positive or negative, as well as which line on the previous graph has a slope that reflects this type of relationship. Hint: The X-axis and Y-axis on the graph are not labeled intentionally. You need to substitute the variables from each scenario for the horizontal and vertical axis. For example, in the first scenario, X-axis should be labeled “ ice-cream" and Y-axis should be labeled "The temperature". Scenario Relationship Line As the temperature rises, the demand for ice-cream rises. Negative As the temperature rises, the demand for hot cocoa falls. Positive As the temperature falls, the demand for popsicles falls.
