Answer:
y hat = 2114.20 + 18.96x
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the least square regression model equation:
y hat = -959.00 + 8.60x
weld diameter x ; shear strength y (in pounds)
1 lb = 0.4536 kg
To express shear strength y in kilogram:
y is multiplied by 0.4536
(y hat × 0.4536) = -959.00 + 8.60x
Divide both sides by 0.4536
(y hat × 0.4536) / 0.4536= (-959.00 + 8.60x) / 0.4536
y hat = 2114.1975 + 18.959435x
y hat = 2114.20 + 18.96x
using the LCD method.... well, there are a couple of ways, but let's simply add them up.
well, the denominators are 5x and 2x... so the only LCD will just be 10x, since it's divisible by both, so let's use that one.
