Answer:

$300 was the regular price of the sofa.

Step-by-step explanation:

If $219 is 27% less than the regular price, then it represents 73% of the regular price.

Regular price = r.

r/1 x 73/100 = $219. Reverse this to find that $219/1 divided by 73/100 = r.

To divide fractions, reverse the second fraction and MULTIPLY:

$219/1 x 100/73 = 21900/73 = 300.

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

The predicted life expectancy of men in a country in which the life expectancy of women is 70 years is 65.33 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

The least square regression line is used to predict the value of the dependent variable from an independent variable.

The general form of a least square regression line is:

\hat y=\alpha +\beta x

Here,

<em>y</em> = dependent variable

<em>x</em> = independent variable

<em>α</em> = intercept

<em>β</em> = slope

The regression line to predict the life expectancy of men in a country from the life expectancy of women in that country is:

\hat y=3.73 +0.88 x

Compute the life expectancy of men in a country in which the life expectancy of women is 70 years as follows:

\hat y=3.73 +0.88 x

  =3.73 +(0.88\times 70)\\=3.73+61.6\\=65.33

Thus, the predicted life expectancy of men in a country in which the life expectancy of women is 70 years is 65.33 years.
