<h3>What is regression line?</h3>A regression line is a graphic representation of the regression equation expressing the hypothesized relationship between an outcome or dependent variable and one or more predictors or independent variables;
y=
Correlation:
r=0.964
R-squared:
r²=0.9292
Hence, value of a and b is 2.17 and 1.95.

Answer:
x =
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
-
=
← factor denominator
-
=
[ x ≠ 0, x ≠ - 1 as these would make the terms undefined ]
Multiply through by x(x + 1)
4x² - 5(x + 1) = 4
4x² - 5x - 4 = 4 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
4x² - 5x - 9 = 0 ← in standard form
(x + 1)(4x - 9) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = - 1
4x - 9 = 0 ⇒ 4x = 9 ⇒ x =
However, x ≠ - 1 for reason given above, then
solution is x =
