Does the residual plot indicate that a line is a good model for predicting the height of girls from their ages? Explain.

1 answer:

8 0

A plot of residuals (vertical deviations from the regression line) shows the errors or lack of fit, so it would indicate a good fit if the residuals are small, vs. over fit if they are large. Due to age related growth short pre teen, and a plateau after age 21, I would expect a linear regression would offer estimate age 5.5 years.

Answer:

4 hours. 1 3/4 is about 2, and 2 1/4 rounds to 2. 1/4 would round to 0, but it would not affect the estimate's accuracy much because we rounded up by 1/4 on 1 3/4 already. Philipe spent about 4 hours on activities.

olasank [31]

First you need to find out how much Molly paid. So, $24 times 0.25 equals $6 off so $24 minus $6 equals $18. Molly paid $18 for the jeans. Then to find the percentage of increase you would find the difference between how much the store bought the jeans minus how much they sold them for which is $18-$6=$12 then u would do $12 divided by $6 which is 2 and then multiply by 100 to get 200%. So the store earned a 200% increase on the jeans they sold to Molly.
