The regression equation Credits = 17.9 − 0.09 Work was estimated from a sample of 21 statistics students. Credits is the number

of college credits taken and Work is the number of hours worked per week at an outside job. (Round your answers to 1 decimal place.) (a) Choose the correct statement. An increase in the number of hours worked per week increases the expected number of credits. A decrease in the number of hours worked per week decreases the expected number of credits. An increase in the number of hours worked per week decreases the expected number of credits. (b) Choose the right option. The intercept is not meaningful as a student who works outside may not earn any credits. The intercept is meaningful as a student may not have a job outside of school. (c) If Work = 0, then Credits = . If Work = 60, then Credits = .

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Given the regression equation

Credit= 17.9 - 0.09 Work

That was estimated from a sample of n= 21 statistic students.

Y: number of college credits taken

X: number of hours worked per week at an outside job

a)

The estimation for the slope is -0.09

As you see the estimated slope is negative, this means that the association between the two variables is indirect or inverse. Meaning, when the number of Work increases, the number of Credit decreases. (negative regression)

The correct option is: "An increase in the number of hours worked per week decreases the expected number of credits."

b)

The estimation for the intercept is 17.9

In general, the intercept is the estimated average of Y when X=0. You can interpret the intercept of this equation as "the value of Credits earned by a student that does not work outside of school"

The correct option is: " The intercept is meaningful as a student may not have a job outside of school. "

c)

If Work=0, then Credit= 17.9 (As explained in item b)

By replacing the value in the equation: Credit= 17.9 - 0.09 * 0= 17.9

If Work=60, you replace it in the equation and:

Credit= 17.9 - 0.09 Work= 17.9-0.09*60= 12.5

If the student works 60 hs outside of school it is expected that he takes 12.5 college credits.

I hope this helps!

When y=-2, what kind of line does it have horizontal or vertical
Rashid [163]

Answer: Horizontal

Step-by-step explanation: The equation <em>y = -2</em> can be thought of as y = 0x - 2. So our line has a slope of 0 and a y-intercept of -2.

To graph it, we start with the y-intercept, down 2 units on the y-axis. Now, if the slope of a line is 0, then the line must be flat or horizontal.

So we just draw a horizontal line through the y-intercept of -2.

In fact, when the equation of any line reads y = a number, it's graph will always be a horizontal line. For example, y = 3, y = -10, y = -8 and so on.

Each unit on the grid stands for one miles determine two ways to calculate the distance from josie's house to annies
Novosadov [1.4K]
I encountered this problem before but it had an accompanying image and list of answer choices.

I'll attach the image and include the list of options. 

Each unit on the grid stands for one mile. Determine two ways to calculate the distance from Josie's house to Annie's house.
A) Distance Formula and Slope Formula
B) Midpoint Formula and Slope Formula
C) Distance Formula and Midpoint Formula
<span>D) Distance Formula and Pythagorean Theorem
</span>
My answer is: D.) Distance formula and Pythagorean Theorem.

When looking at the image, I can visualize a right triangle. I'll simply get the measure of the long and short legs and solve for the hypotenuse. 
Since the distance formula is derived from the Pythagorean theorem, it can be used to determine the distance from Josie's house to Annie's house.
