The mean height of married American women in their early twenties is 64.5 inches and the standard deviation is 2.5 inches. The m

ean height of married mean the same age is 68.5 inches, with standard deviation of 2.7 inches. The correlation between the heights of husbands and wives is about r = 0.5. a) Find the equation of the least-squares regression line for predicting a husband’s height from the wife’s height for married couples in their early 20s.

Answer:

The equation for regression line and predicting a husband's height for married couples in their early 20s

Equation: Y'=33.67+0.54*X'

Step-by-step explanation:

r=0.5

x'=64.5

Sx=2.5

y'=68.5

Sy=2.7

General regression line equation is:

Y'=a+b*X'

so the slope of the regression line is the linear correlation coefficient multiplied by the standard deviation for y' divided by the standard deviation for x'

b=r*\frac{S_{y}}{S_{x}}\\b=0.5*\frac{2.7}{2.5}\\b=0.54

The intercept with axis y is the mean of the decreased by the product of the slope and the mean of x

a=y'-b*x'\\a=68.5-0.54*64.5\\a=33.67

The equation regression line then is:

Y'=33.67+0.54*X'

The equation below shows the total volume (V), in cubic units, of 2 identical boxes with each side equal to s units:
trasher [3.6K]
Start with the equation,

V = 2s^3

Now substitute s with 3.5 units and evaluate the expression.

V = 2 * (3.5 units)^3

V = 2 * 42.875 units^3

V = 85.75 units^3

Answer: The volume is 85.75 cubic units
