Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The objective is to determine if there is a linear association between the price of a mountain bike (Y) and it's the weight (X).

a.

Looking at the Scatterplot the data is dispersed in all quadrants of the graph, at first glance there seems to be some kind of functional relationship between the price and weight of mountain bike bicycles. If you are not too strict maybe there could be a slight negative relationship between them.

b.

The linear regression model is E(Yi)= α + βXi

To find the regression model for this particular set of variables you have to estimate the intercept and the slope.

a= Y[bar] - bX[bar] = 1961.40 $

b= \frac{sum XiYi-\frac{(sumXi)(sumYi)}{n} }{sumXi^2-\frac{(sumXi)^2}{n} } = -42.99 $/LB

^Yi= 1961.40 - 42.99Xi

$ 1961.40 is the estimated value of the average price if the weight of the mountain bike is zero. (It has no contextual sense)

-42.99 $/LB is the modification of the estimated average price every time the weight of the mountain bike.

c.

In this item, you need yo obtain a value of price for a given value of weight. To do so all you have to do is replace the value on the estimated regression model:

^Y/X=3232= 1961.40 - 42.99*32= $585.72

I hope it helps!

The volume of the single crayon is 89.5 cm³, then the total volume of the crayons will be 2148 cm³. Then the correct option is D.

<h3>What is Geometry?</h3>

It deals with the size of geometry, region, and density of the different forms both 2D and 3D.

A Crayon is shown here.

There are 24 crayons in a box.

The approximate total volume of the crayons will be

Total Volume of crayons = 24 × volume of the single crayon

The crayon is the combination of the cone and the cylinder

Then the volume of the single crayon (V₁) will be

\rm V_1 = \left ( \dfrac{1}{3} \times \pi \times r^2 \times h  \right ) + \left (  \pi \times r^2 \times h  \right )\\\\\rm V_1 = \left ( \dfrac{1}{3} \times \pi \times 1.5^2 \times 2  \right ) + \left (  \pi \times 1.5^2 \times 12  \right )\\\\V_1 = 4.712 + 84.82\\\\V_1 = 89.535 \approx 89.5

Then the Total volume will be

Total volume = 24 × 89.5

Total volume = 2148 cm³
