Answer:

b= - 1.26317

a = 17.237

b. The selling price (in dollars) of a 7-year-old car

y =  8394.81 dollars

C.  For each additional year, the car decreases $ ___ in value.

1263.17 $ decreases per year

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y be the selling price in thousands and x be the age in years

Car         Age        Selling Price

             (years)           ($000)             XY                    X²  

                    X                 Y          

1                   9                  11.1              99.9                   81          

2                  5                  9.5              47.5                   25

3                 13                  4.4               57.2                 169

4                 17                  4.4               74.8                 289

5                 7                 8.06             56.42                49

6                1                   2.07            2.07                     1

7                  1                    0.6            0.6                      1

8                 14                  8.1              113.4                  196

9                12                   8.1              97.2                  144

10              17                    4.8             81.6                  289

11               4                     12.5           50                     16

<u>12              4                      10.7            42.8                 16      </u>

<u>∑               97                    84.33          723.49            1276                 </u>

The estimated regression line of Y on X is

Y= a +bX

and the two normal equations are

∑ y= na + b∑X

∑XY= a∑X + b∑X²

Now

X`= ∑X/n = 97/12= 8.083

b= n∑XY - (∑X)(∑Y)/ n∑ X²- (∑X)²

b= 723.49 - (97)(84.33)/ 12(1276) - (97)²

b= -7456.52/ 5903

b= - 1.26317

a= Y`- b X`

a= 7.0275 - (-- 1.26317)8.083

a = 17.237

Y = 17.237  - 1.26317 X

y= - 1.26317 X + 17.237

b. The selling price (in dollars) of a 7-year-old car

y = - 1.26317 (7) + 17.237

y= 8.39481

y =  8394.81 dollars

C.  For each additional year, the car decreases $ ___ in value.

1.26317 *1000= 1263.17 $ decreases per year

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

7/10

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability that a student is a liberal arts or female, we have to add together all of the people who were female or liberal arts majors in the study. If we add those together, (15 + 18 + 17 + 20) we get 70. 70/100 can be simplified to 7/10.
