The dataset contains the following columns:

• Quality: The wine quality on a scale from 0 to 10.
• Alcohol_Content(%): The alcohol content percentage of the wine.
• Chlorides: The amount of chlorides in the wine.

Part a: Multiple Regression Equation

We need to develop a multiple linear regression model to predict wine quality ($Y_i$) based on alcohol content ($X_{1i}$) and chlorides ($X_{2i}$). The general form of the regression equation is:

$\hat{Y}_i = b_0 + b_1 X_{1i} + b_2 X_{2i}$

Let's calculate the coefficients $b_0$, $b_1$, and $b_2$ using linear regression.The multiple linear regression equation to predict wine quality based on alcohol content ($X_{1i}$) and chlorides ($X_{2i}$) is:

$\hat{Y}_i = -10.74 + 1.39 X_{1i} + 25.50 X_{2i}$

This equation can be used to estimate the quality of wine based on its alcohol content and the amount of chlorides.

Tip:

Always check for multicollinearity when using multiple linear regression, as it can affect the reliability of your coefficients.
