A Three-Variable Multiple Regression Establishes an Estimated Multiple Regression Equation

question 40

Multiple Choice

A three-variable multiple regression establishes an estimated multiple regression equation in such a way that:

• A) all the estimates derived from it fall on a surface that is called the regression plane
• B) all the estimates derived from it fall on a surface that is called the regression plan, which is positioned among the sample points in such a way as to minimize the sum of the square horizontal deviations between these sample points and their associated estimates
• C) all the estimates derived from it fall on a surface that is called the regression plane, which is positioned among the sample points in such a way as to minimize the sum of the squared horizontal deviations between these sample points and their associated estimates, all of which lie on this plane
• D) all of these
• E) none of these
