Simple Linear Regression Differs from Multiple Linear Regression in That

question 31

Multiple Choice

Simple linear regression differs from multiple linear regression in that

• A) multiple linear regression uses all available data to estimate the cost function whereas simple linear regression only uses simple data.
• B) simple linear regression is limited to the use of only the outcome variables and multiple linear regression can use both outcome and predictor variables.
• C) simple linear regression uses only one predictor variable and multiple linear regression uses more than one predictor variable.
• D) simple linear regression uses only one outcome variable and multiple linear regression uses more than one outcome variable.
• E) the lease squares technique cannot be used for simple linear regression whereas it can be used for multiple linear regression.
