Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In multiple regression analysis, the appropriate notation for error (residual) is e, but with a subscript corresponding to each observation, as in option B. Option A is incorrect because it shows the notation for the dependent variable (Y). Option C is incorrect because it shows the notation for the intercept term (b0). Option D is incorrect because it shows the notation for one of the independent variables (X1). Option E is incorrect because it shows the notation for the predicted value of Y (Y-hat).
