Which statistical technique is employed to quantify the average change in a dependent variable corresponding to a one-unit change in an independent variable?

Multiple choice question for Cost Function and Behavior. Select an option, then review the explanation below.

Explanation

Regression analysis is the statistical approach used to estimate the average change in the dependent variable for every one-unit increase in the independent variable. Other options such as time series analysis, time frame approach, and aggregation technique do not specifically measure this relationship.
