The outcome variable (usually Y) in a regression analysis is called the .
A) regression variable.
B) independent variable.
C) dependent variable.
D) dummy variable

Dependent variable

Step-by-step explanation:

The outcome variable (usually Y) in a regression analysis is called the .

c) dependent variable

If there are two variables and there is a linear correlation between them we try to find the regression line by using least squares method.

X the variable which is input or which is first found out is called independent variable.

The outcome variable is the dependent variable

Dummy variable is one which takes only values 0 or 1 depending on whether not present or present.

As you can see from the table, Free time (y-axis) decreases as you increase number of sports teams (x=axis).

Is the relationship a function that is increasing or decreasing?

As x increases, y decreases.

Hence, it is a decreasing function (line).

Is the relationship a function that is linear or nonlinear?

The y values decreases by 7.

So this is a linear relationship.
