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.

The mean age of 3 women in an office is 27 years old.
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

mean age of women

(x+y+z)/3=27

mean age of men

(x1+x2+x3+x4+x5+x6)/6=34

mean age of all people in the office

x+y+z=27*3=81

x1+...x6=34*6=204

so

mean age( x+y+z+x1+x2+..x6)/(3+6)=(27*3+34*6)/9

=(81+204)/9=285/9=32 approximately
