In his statistics class, Sam said, "Linear regression model is a tool to predict the relationship between the dependent variable, and independent variable. So, there will be one specific linear regression model that I can use to know the relationship of variables. I decided to use ordinary least square to have the best estimates for linear regression model parameters because ordinary lease square makes me find the linear regression equation with minimum average of difference between actual dependent variable and the value predicted by linear regression model." Is Sam correct? If not, how do we need to fix his idea?

Mohammed · Answer 1

Yes, obviously Sam is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear regression model is a tool to predict the relationship between the dependent variable, and independent variable

Linear Regression model is one of the Important model that is been used in statistics involved data analysis of dependent variable and an independent variable. Between these two that is dependent variable and an independent variable, the application of Linear Regression model is used in showing the relationships between the two variables.

Diana Schmitt · Answer 2

Yes, Sam is correct and there is no need to fix his idea.

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear Regression model is one of the Important model that is been used in statistics especially in statistics which actively involved data analysis of dependent variable and an independent variable. Between these two that is dependent variable and an independent variable, the application of Linear Regression model is used in showing the relationships between the two variables.

Just like Sam said in the question above, '' "Linear regression model is a tool to predict the relationship between the dependent variable, and independent variable ... '', that is what linear regression is used for.
