B)multiple regression
C)chi-square
D)factor analysis

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The equation Y = bₒ + b₁X₁ + b₂X₂ + b₃X₃...+ bnXn is the formula for multiple regression analysis. In this type of analysis, multiple independent variables are used to predict the value of a dependent variable. Therefore, the correct answer is B - multiple regression. The other options (A - simple regression, C - chi-square, and D - factor analysis) are not appropriate because they do not involve predicting a dependent variable using multiple independent variables.
