Answer:

b. y = 15.3 x - 25.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, x represents the number of years after 1972,

Thus, the table of variables will be,

x         0                   2                    4                   6                    8

y        -28                8                    39                 62                 98        

By the above table,

We have,

\sum x = 20

\sum y = 179

\sum x^2=120

\sum xy = 1328

Since, the linear regression equation is,

y = b + ax

Where,

b=\frac{n(\sum xy)-(\sum x)(\sum y)}{n(\sum x^2)-(\sum x)^2}

a=\frac{(\sum y) (\sum x^2)-(\sum x)(\sum xy)}{n(\sum x^2)-(\sum x)^2}

By substituting the values,

We get, b = -25.4 and a = 15.3

Thus, the required linear regression equation is,

y = 15.3 x - 25.4

⇒ Option b is correct.

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

A) The brand of cars driven by Harvard instructors

C) The types of plants growing in yellowstone  

Step-by-step explanation:

Categorical and numerical variables:

  • Numerical data can be expressed with the help of numerical.
  • Categorical data cannot be expressed by numerical.
  • They do no have any particular value.
  • They are the non-parametric data.
  • Categorical data are also known as qualitative data.

A) The brand of cars driven by Harvard instructors

Since the brands cannot be expressed in numerical, it is a categorical variable.

B) The age of randomly selected biology students.

The age of student are expressed in whole numbers or decimals. Thus, it is a numerical data.

C) The types of plants growing in yellowstone

Again, the type of plants cannot be expressed with the help of numerical. Thus, it is a categorical variable.
