What type of model should we use when our target outcome, or dependent variable, is continuous? 4. Question 4 What type of model should we use when our target outcome, or dependent variable, is continuous? 1 / 1 point Logistic regression Linear Regression Confidence intervals Other Questions Of This Category You wish to fit a model to a "forced choice" binary dependent variable measuring political party preference (if you had to pick a political party, which would you select: Democratic or Republican?),…You are interested in predicting the probability that an NCAA men's basketball team wins their first round game in the annual NCAA men's basketball tournament, where potential predictors of the binary…You want to fit a model that enables the prediction of a continuous measure of birth weight for all of the newborns at a single large hospital.

Which of the following collected variables could be predicted using a logistic regression model?We’d like to predict the log odds of smoking 100+ cigarettes for a given individual using the logistic regression model with the two variables: BMI and Age.
