Linear 4) The relationship between number of beers consumed (x) and blood alcohol 0 points
Regression(Continued) content (y) was studied in 16 male college students and developed using linear regression
and Multiple technique. The following regression equation was obtained from this study: y = -0.0127 +
Regression 0.0180.The above equation implies that:
(unit?
unit=66&lesson=73) each unit beer consumed increases blood alcohol content by 1.27%
Quiz : on an average it takes 1.8 beer units to increase the blood alcohol content by 1%
Objective
each unit beer consumed is expected to increase the average blood alcohol content by
