A cost accountant is developing a regression model to predict the total cost of producing a batch of printed circuit boards as a linear function of batch size (the number of boards produced in one lot or batch), production plant (Kingsland and Yorktown), and production shift (day and evening). The response variable in this model is ____
A
batch size
B
production shift
C
production plant
D
