A small independent organic food store offers a variety of specialty coffees. To determine whether price has an impact on sales,

the managers kept track of how many pounds of each variety of coffee were sold last month. Based on the data and summary statistics shown below, the slope of the estimated regression line that relates the response variable (monthly sales) to the predictor variable (price per pound) is
PRICE PER POUND POUNDS SOLD

$ 3.99 75

$ 5.99 60

$ 7.00 65

$ 12.00 45

$ 4.50 80

$ 7.50 70

$ 15.00 25

$ 10.00 35

$ 12.50 40

$ 8.99 50



Mean $ 8.75 54.50

Answer:

b= -4.68

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

We have to study variables:

Y: Monthly coffe sales

X: Price per pound of coffe ($)

The estimate regression line is

^Yi= a + bxi ∀ (i=1,.....,10)

The slope of the estimated regression line is represented by b.

The formula I'll use to calculate it is:

b= [n∑xiyi -(∑xi)*(∑yi)]/ n∑xi²-(∑xi)²

To calculate b we need to do some auxiliary calculations:

∑xiyi= 4213.15

∑xi= 87.47

∑yi= 545

∑xi²= 883.3703

Then we replace the formula:

b= [10*4213.15-(87.47)*(545)]/ n883.3703-(87.47)²

b= -4.68

I hope you have a SUPER day!

Write the equation of the line that is parallel to
Kruka [31]

Answer:

y = -x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Lines that are parallel have the same slope but different

y-intercepts.

So the slope of the parallel line is -x

We can input the x and y points given to solve for the new y-intercept

  • y = -x + b
  • 8 = -(-6) + b
  • 8 = 6 + b
  • b = 2

The new line is y = -x + 2. Since these two lines are the same, they are coinciding lines.

The temperature fell by 15 degrees Fahrenheit today.
katrin2010 [14]
<h3>Answer is   -15</h3>

We read this out as "negative 15" or you could write "negative fifteen".

The negative indicates the temperature went down. It doesn't necessarily mean that the final temperature is -15 degrees.

For example, if it starts being 50 degrees F, and drops by 15 degrees, then 50+(-15) = 50-15 = 35 degrees is the temperature after that drop. It might help to use a vertical number line.

Answer: 1 1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3 + 3/4 =

1/3 x 4= 4/12

3/4 x 3 = 9/12

9/12 + 4/12 = 13/12 = 1 1/12
