Answer: approximately 24

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to plot a regression line.

So we fit a model using the regression of Y on X, that an equation that predict Y for a given X using:

(Y -mean(Y ))= a(X-meanX)...........1

Where the formular of a is given the attachment.

N= the of individuals = 5

Y = amount of fat

X = time of exercise

mean(X )= sum of all X /N

= 131/5 = 26.2

mean(Y) = sum of all Y/N

= 104/5 = 20.8

a = N(SXY) - (SX)(SY)/ NS(X²) -(SX)²......2

SXY = Sum of Product X and Y

SX= sum of all X

SY = Sum of all Y

S(X²)= sum of all X²

(SX) = square of sum of X

a = -0.478

Hence we substitute into 1

Y-20.8 = -0.478 (X-26.2)

Y -20.8 = -0.478X - 12.524

Y = -0.478X + 33.324 or

Y = 33.324 - 0.478X (model)

When X = 20

Y = 33.324 - 0.478 × 20

Y = 33.324 - 9.56

Y = 23. 764

Y =24(approximately)

Carefully meaning of formula used in attachment to the solution they are the same.

Kala, Deandre, and Eric have a total of $119 in their wallets, Kala has $6 more than Deandre. Eric has 3 times what kala has. Ho
Tomtit [17]
Deandre = x
Kala = x + 6
Eric = 3(x+6)
x + x + 6 + 3(x+6) = 119
2x + 6 + 3x + 18 = 119
5x + 24 = 119
5x = 95, x = 19
Deandre has $19
Kala has 19 + 6 = $25
Eric has 3(25) = $75
