a. To find the least squares regression equation for a group of (x,y) points:

Step 1: For each point(x,y), we need to calculate x² and xy first.

Step 2: Sum all x, y, x² and xy, which gives us Σx, Σy, Σx² and Σxy

Step 3: Calculate Slope m: m = (NΣxy − Σx Σy)/ N(Σx²) − (Σx)² , here N is the number of data.

Step 4: Calculate Intercept b: b = Σy − m(Σx)/ N

Step 5: Assemble the equation as y= mx+b

Here, we have ∑x = 120, ∑y= 1379, ∑x²= 919.5, ∑xy= 10466 and N= 16

So, m= (NΣxy − Σx Σy)/ N(Σx²) − (Σx)²

= \frac{(16*10466)-(120*1379)}{(16*919.5)-(120)^{2}}

= \frac{167456-165480}{14712-14400}

= \frac{1976}{312}

= 6.33

and b = Σy − m(Σx)/ N

= \frac{1379-(6.33*120)}{16}

= \frac{1379-759.6}{16}

= \frac{619.4}{16}

= 38.71

So, the least squares regression equation is : y= mx+b ⇒ y= 6.33x +38.71

b. When x= 8, then y= (6.33×8)+38.71 = 50.64 + 38.71 =89.35

The approximate test score of a student who sleeps an average of 8 h a night is 89.35%

What is "shift y= 5x 3 units up"
lesya [120]
It's asking you to shift the graph of; y = 5x up 3 units. if you add 3 to the equation, all y-values will be increased by 3 this shifts the graph up exactly 3 units.

y = 5x + 3

Write a linear equation. Choose three input values and find the corresponding output values. Show your work.
erma4kov [3.2K]

Example of linear equation:

y = mx + b

Let's have the linear equation;

y = 2x + 3

<h3 /><h3>Put x=1</h3>

y = 2 \times 1 + 3  \\ y = 2 + 3 \\ y = 5

(x,y) = (1,5)

<h3>Put x=2</h3>

y = 2 \times 2 + 3 \\ y = 4 + 3 \\ y = 7

(x,y) = (2,7)

<h3>Put x=3</h3>

y = 2 \times 3 + 3 \\ y = 6 + 3 \\ y = 9

(x,y) = (3,9)

What is the value of x in the equation 2(x – 3) + 9 = 3(x + 1) + x?
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

Given the equation: 2(x-3)+9=3(x+1)+x

Distributive property of multiplication states that when a number is multiplied by the sum of the two numbers, the first number can be distributed to both of those numbers and multiplied by each of them separately i.e,

a \cdot (b+c) = a\cdot b+a\cdot c

Now, using distributive property to LHS and RHS, we get

2x-6+9=3x+3+x

Combine like terms on RHS;

2x-6+9 = 4x+3

or

2x+3 = 4x+3

Subtract 3 from both sides of an equation;

2x+3-3 =4x+3-3

Simplify:

2x = 4x

or

4x-2x =0

2x = 0

⇒ x =0

Therefore, the value of x in the given equation

2(x-3)+9=3(x+1)+x is 0.
