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.
