A

Linear regression

26
Q

The 2 classifications of Linear Regression

A
  1. Simple linear regression
  2. Multiple Linear Regression
27
Q

is seen to slope higher because providers are prepared to create more when prices rise .

A

Supply

28
Q

is thought to slope downward since customers tend to buy less when prices are greater.

A

Demand

32
Q

shows exactly how many units of a good or service will be purchased at various price points.
