Question

Which of these is not true about a polynomial regression model?

Group of answer choices
a. used when the linear regression is not able to capture the data points
b. has multiple predictors
c. requires a linear relationship between the predictor and the dependent variable

Answer 1

Answer:

Option b

Step-by-step explanation:

c. requires a linear relationship between the predictor and the dependent variable is not true about a polynomial regression model.

Polynomial regression models allow for non-linear relationships between the predictor and dependent variable by adding polynomial terms to the model. This means that polynomial regression models can capture non-linear relationships that linear regression models cannot.

Therefore, option a is true. Polynomial regression models can also have multiple predictors, so option b is true.
