Find the equation of the regression line to predict weekly sales from advertising expenditure.
Interpret regression co-efficient and y-intercept
Can we take advertising costs as dependent variable if yes then how if not then why?
Could this question be studied using correlation, if yes then how if not then why
Answer by ikleyn(52884) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! .
From the context, the input data should be two-column table,
but I see only one column.
With such data presentation, the problem can not be solved, and NEITHER question "how" NOR "why" can be answered.
If you are going to fix your data and to re-post to this forum, then PLEASE do not post it to me personally.
