The human resources department of the Mean Corporation would like to estimate the size of the annual salary that they should offer to university graduates. The CEO of the Mean Corporation has suggested that the salary offered (W) should be calculated based on the Grade Point Average (G) of a student. Based on a random sample of university graduates, the human resources department has calculated the mean salary offered to university graduates to be W* and the mean Grade Point Average of university graduates to be G*. The Mean Corporation will carry out a regression analysis to investigate the relationship between salary and Grade Point Average.
Select the dependent variable in the regression analysis that will be conducted:
