This question is incomplete, the complete question is;
Suppose John is a high school statistics teacher who believes that watching many hours of TV leads to lower test scores. Immediately after giving the most recent test, he surveyed each of the 24 students in his class and asked them how many hours of TV they watched that week. He then matched each student's test grade with his or her survey response. After compiling the data, he used hours of TV watched to predict each student's test score. He found the least-squares regression line to be y" = -1.5x + 85.
He also calculated that the value of r, the correlation, was -0.61.
what is the correct value of the coefficient of determination R² and give a correct interpretation of its meaning
Answer:
Interpretation of coefficient of determination R² = 0.3721
R² = 0.3721, meaning 37.21% of the total variation in test scores can be explained by the least square regression line
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data in the question;
the least square regression line is;
y" = -1.5x + 85
the correlation coefficient r = -0.61
Now, the coefficient of determination R² is square of correlation coefficient r
R² = -61²
R² = 0.3721
Actually, the real answer is "NO, BECAUSE GROUP B SHOULD BE THE CONTROL GROUP". Since Yvonne gave the flea medication to the group A, and we need a control group. If you don't know what it's the control group, it's the group that they don't put the experiment on, just to see if the group(s) being experimented, had any positive or negative changes. In a short summary they need group B to stay like they are to compare it to the experimented group (group A)
Good Luck!
Answer:
The step 4 is not what he should have done. But the wrong is step 5, because if he added -2x both sides, it would give the following equation:

and not 
Note that in step 4 he should have added 2x and not -2x to both sides, but we still have the equality. The problem is that step 5 is totally wrong.
I don't know what answer is expected to this question, but I would mark step 5, because this is mathematically wrong.
Solving the equation

Using distribution

Add
both sides


Add 12 both sides

Divide both sides by 5

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
(f+g)(x) = -3x+5
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x)=x+8 and g(x)=-4x-3
(f+g)(x) = f(x) + g(x)
= x+8+-4x-3
= -3x+5
