Answer:
x = X + 33 (I am guessing "x" and "X" are not the same. "x" is a variable and "X" is a constant.)
Step-by-step explanation:
31 - X + (2x+1) = x - 1
or, 2x+1 = x - 1 - 31 + X
or, 2x - x = -1 -31 + X -1
or, x = -2 -31 + X
or, x = X - 33
Answer:
y = 7.8x + 26
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Pearson's r = 0.78
Average consumption of ice cream = 5 grams per week (m) with Standard deviation (sd) = 1.5 grams
Average weight = 65 kg with standard deviation of 15kg
Formular for the regression line :
General regression formula :
y = mx + c
y = predicted variable ; m = slope or gradient ; x = predictor variable ; c = intercept
Gradient (m) = change in y / change in x
m = (sd y / sd x) * r
m = (sd weight / sd ice cream) × r
m = (15 / 1.5) × r
m = 10 × 0.78 = 7.8
Intercept:
mean of weight(y) - [Slope×mean of icecream(x)]
65 - [7.8 × 5]
65 - 39 = 26
Hence,
y = 7.8x + 26
