Answer:
- we can conclude that for every single unit of : x, y would be increased by 0.2871. and intersection of x and y will be through =1.5974
- it can be concluded that they are strongly positively correlated. There is strong and positive correlation between them. i.e the number of fatal accidents and the drivers under the age of 21
Step-by-step explanation:
WITH THE GIVEN DATA
A ) using regression to investigate the relationship between the number of fatal accidents and the percentage of drivers under the age pf 21
to fit into a regression line we must have ∝ and β
where β = = 0.2871
and ∝ = y - βx = - 1.5974
regression line = ∝ + β * x
insert values into regression line equation
regression line = -1.5974 + 0.2871 * x
we can conclude that for every single unit of : x, y would be increased by 0.2871. and intersection of x and y will be through =1.5974
B ) conclusion and recommendations can you derive from your analysis
it can be concluded that they are strongly positively correlated. There is strong and positive correlation between them. i.e the number of fatal accidents and the drivers under the age of 21
using the correlation coefficient ( r ) = = 0.8394

Commenter jdoe said it right: solve for y and leave the rest on the other side.
-x + 3y = 6
3y = 6 + x add x on both sides
3y = x + 6 rearrange to get the x first
y = (x + 6) /3 divide both sides by 3
y = x/3 + 6/3 split the numerator (caution - never split denominators)
y = x/3 + 2 simplify 6/3
Thus the line in slope intercept form of y = mx + b is y =
