What is the value of the intercept of the regression line, b, rounded to one decimal place?

Answer:

b = - 3.7

Step-by-step explanation:

here are the data values:

x   y          XY        X²

14 46         644       196

15 49         735       225

16 37          592      256

17 42          714        289

18 37          666      324

19 31           589      361

20 25         500      400

21 23          483       441

22 20         440       484

23 15          345       529

24 12         288       576

now we are required to find the summation (total) of all values of X, Y, XY and X².

∑X = 209

∑Y = 337

∑XY = 5996

∑X² = 4081

The formular for finding b is given as:

b = n∑XY - (X)(Y) / n∑X² - (∑X)²

= 11(5996) - (209)(337) / 11(4081) - (209)²

= 65956 - 70433 / 44891 - 43681

= -4477/ 1210

= -3.7

The question asked us to find the <em>value of b</em> but we can  go further to find the equation of the regression line:

a = ∑Y - b∑X / n

= 337 - (-3.7)(209)/  11

=1110.3/11

= 100.94

the equation is:

Y = 100.94 - 3.7X

I hope you find my solution useful!

The local grocery store has sorted apples by size. The distribution is approximately normal. The large apples have a mean diamet
NikAS [45]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

Approximately 0.2% of the apples will be more than three standard deviations above the mean size. In a bin of 100 apples, 0.2% of 100=0.2% apples, this rounds down to zero apples that size or larger. (In a bin of 500 apples, there could be one apple of that size.)

Lines DE and AB intersect at point C.
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+2+5x+3=180 (angles on a straight line)

7x+5=180

7x=180-5

7x=175

x=25 (dividing both sides by 7)
