A regression was run to determine if there is a relationship between hours of TV watched per day (x) and number of situps a pers

on can do (y). The results of the regression were: y=ax+b a=-0.74 b=36.359 r2=0.767376 r=-0.876 Use this to predict the number of situps a person who watches 8.5 hours of TV can do (to one decimal place)

Answer:

A person who watches 8.5 hours of TV can do 30.4 sit ups.

Step-by-step explanation:

The regression equation is used to predict or estimate the value of the response (or dependent) variables using the information about the explanatory (or predictor) variables.

The general form of a regression equation is:

y=ax+b

Here,

<em>y</em> = dependent variable

<em>x</em> = independent variable

<em>a</em> = intercept

<em>b</em> = slope

The regression equation representing the relationship between hours of TV watched per day (<em>x</em>) and number of sit ups a person can do (<em>y</em>) is:

y=-0.74x+36.359

Compute the number of sit ups a person who watches 8.5 hours of TV can do as follows:

y=-0.74x+36.359

  =(-0.74\times 8.5)+36.359\\=-6.29+36.659\\=30.369\\\approx 30.4

Thus, a person who watches 8.5 hours of TV can do 30.4 sit ups.

<span>Based on the rules of statistics</span>

 68% of the data falls within 1 standard deviation of the mean

95% of the data falls within 2 standard deviation of the mean

99% of the data falls within 3 standard deviation of the mean

 20 falls between the range of -56 to 56 (from the given 95%)

Hence we accept the null hypothesis; else, if the mean falls outside the range, we reject the null hypothesis.

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

A. Right angle  -- if you multiply the slopes of 2 intersecting lines and you "-1" then the lines are perpendicular - in this case the line in quadrant 3 has a slope of "1" and the line in quadrant 4 has a slope of "-1", hence their product is "-1" and the angles formed at the intersection of the lines are right angles.
