The regression equation is y = 16.585x - 639.769 and the linear correlation coefficient indicates a strong linear relationship

<h3>How to determine the regression equation?</h3>

To do this, we make use of a statistical calculator;

Using the statistical calculator, we have the following summary:

Sum of X = 554
Sum of Y = 4070
Mean X = 69.25
Mean Y = 508.75
Sum of squares (SSX) = 725.5
Sum of products (SP) = 12032.5
Correlation coefficient, r = 0.9768

The regression equation is

ŷ = bx + a

Where:

b = SP/SSX = 12032.5/725.5 = 16.58511

a = MY - bMX = 508.75 - (16.59*69.25) = -639.76912

Hence, the regression equation is y = 16.585x - 639.769

<h3>The number of cans sold at 90 degrees F</h3>

This means that"

x = 90

So, we have:

y = 16.585 * 90 - 639.769

Evaluate

y = 852.881

Approximate

y = 853

Hence, 853 cans were sold at 90 degrees F

<h3>The linear correlation coefficient</h3>

In (a), we have:

r = 0.9768

This means that the linear correlation coefficient is 0.9768

<h3>The conclusion</h3>

We have:

r = 0.9768

The above value is closer to 1 because

|r| > 0.9

i.e.

0.9768 > 0.9

Hence, the linear correlation coefficient indicates a strong linear relationship

A student studying his classmates' cars' ages reports the 5-number summary as {1, 3, 4, 8, 20}. what is the iqr for his data?

timurjin [86]

IQR for the data {1, 3, 4, 8, 20} is 5.

Interquartile Range(IQR) for a data is defined as the difference between third quartile and first quartile.

denoted by IQR=Q₃-Q₁ (Q₃ is third quartile and Q₁ is first quartile)

The five number summary of a data set is represented as

{minimum, first quartile , second quartile , third quartile , maximum}..…(1)

According to the question

{1, 3, 4, 8, 20}

On comparing it with equation …(1)

minimum=1

Q₁ =3 , Q₂=4 , Q₃=8 , maximum =20

IQR=Q₃-Q₁

Substituting the values we get

IQR=8-3=5.

Therefore , Interquartile Range for the data {1, 3, 4, 8, 20} is 5.

which statement is true about the equations –3x 4y = 12 and x1/4 – 1/3y = 1? the system of the equations has exactly one solutio

finlep [7]

If you would like to solve the system of equations, you can do this using the following steps:

-3x + 4y = 12
x * 1/4 - 1/3 * y = 1 ... x * 1/4 = 1 + 1/3 * y ... x = 4 + 4/3 * y
_____________
<span>-3x + 4y = 12
</span>-3 * (4 + 4/3 * y) + 4y = 12
-12 - 4y + 4y = 12
-12 = 12
-12 - 12 = 0
-24 = 0

The correct result would be: <span>the system of the equations has no solution; the two lines are parallel.</span>
