2. A set of data consists of the number of years that applicants for foreign service jobs have studied German and the grades that they received on a proficiency test.
The following regression equation is obtained: = 31.6 + 10.9x, where x represents
the number of years of study and y represents the grade on the test.
a. Identify the predictor and response variables.
b. Interpret the regression equation by interpreting the y-intercept and slope.

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the regression equation :

y = 31.6 + 10.9x

x = the number of years of study ;

y = the grade on the test.

The predicted is y which is also the same as the response variable, hence, the response variable is grade on the test

The predictor variable is x, which is the independent variable, which is the number of years of study.

From. The regression output given ;

The slope which is the Coefficient of the predictor variable is 10.9 which means that for every unit change in number of years of study, the grade on test increases by 10.9

The intercept which is the constant value, 31.6, means, the least a person can get in the get in grade is 31.6 (at x = 0)

answer: a and b
