LINEAR REGRESSION

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A term used to describe the case when the independent variables in a multiple regression model are correlated is ____
A
independence of residual
B
linearity of residual
C
multicollinearity
D
homocedasticity
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Multicollinearity is the occurrence of high intercorrelations among two or more independent variables in a multiple regression model.

Detailed explanation-2: -Multicollinearity is a situation in which the dependent variable is highly correlated with two or more of the independent variables in a multiple regression.

Detailed explanation-3: -The independent variables may also be referred to as the predictor variables or regressors. There are 3 major uses for multiple linear regression analysis. First, it might be used to identify the strength of the effect that the independent variables have on a dependent variable.

Detailed explanation-4: -Multicollinearity refers to a situation in which more than two explanatory variables in a multiple regression model are highly linearly related. There is perfect multicollinearity if, for example as in the equation above, the correlation between two independent variables equals 1 or −1.
