The midpoint formula is x1+x2 over 2 and y1+y2 over 2. When you use it to find the midpoint of (0,-8) and (-4,10), you get (-2,1).
Slope formula is y2-y1 over x2-x1, which will give you -6.
Answer:
y = 7.8x + 26
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Pearson's r = 0.78
Average consumption of ice cream = 5 grams per week (m) with Standard deviation (sd) = 1.5 grams
Average weight = 65 kg with standard deviation of 15kg
Formular for the regression line :
General regression formula :
y = mx + c
y = predicted variable ; m = slope or gradient ; x = predictor variable ; c = intercept
Gradient (m) = change in y / change in x
m = (sd y / sd x) * r
m = (sd weight / sd ice cream) × r
m = (15 / 1.5) × r
m = 10 × 0.78 = 7.8
Intercept:
mean of weight(y) - [Slope×mean of icecream(x)]
65 - [7.8 × 5]
65 - 39 = 26
Hence,
y = 7.8x + 26
1/2 because you can simplify 4/8 and do 4 divided by 4 and 8 divided by 4 which is 1/2
