The predicted height of wife using the linear regression model is 62 inches.

General form of a linear regression equation :

  • y = bx + c

  • Slope, b = r(Sy/Sx) = 0.25(2.5/2.7) = 0.2315

  • y = 63 inches ; x = 68 inches

<u>We could obtain the value of intercept, c thus</u> :

63 = 0.2315(68) + c

63 = 15.742 + c

c = 63 - 15.742

c = 47.258

The regression model is thus : y = 0.2315x + 47.258

The value y, when x = 64

Substitute x = 64 into the regression equation ;

  • y = 0.2315(64) + 47.258

  • y = 62.074

Therefore, the predicted height wife is 62 inches.

Ivan was given two data sets, one without an outlier and one with an outlier. data without an outlier: 108, 113, 105, 118, 124,
Debora [2.8K]

Median is the middle data in the list of the given numbers. In the given data set the median gets decreased by the presence of the outlier. Thus, option C is correct.

<h3>What is an outlier?</h3>

An outlier is a data that varies significantly from the other data set, due to some error or measuring variability.

The median of the data without outlier is calculated as:

First, data is arranged in the ascending order: 105, 108, 109, 113, 118, 121, 124

Median = \rm \dfrac{7 + 1 ^{th}}{2} term

= 4th term

= 113

The median of the data with outlier is calculated as:

First, data is arranged in the ascending order: 61, 105, 108, 109, 113, 118, 121, 124

Median = \rm \dfrac{(\dfrac{8}{2})^{th}  + (\dfrac{8}{2} + 1)^{th}} {2}

= (109 + 113) ÷ 2

= 111

Therefore, the outlier decreased the median.
