Answer:
c)
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation for regression line of y on x is given as
where
= predicted value
m = slope of line
b = intercept
m and b are found as
r = correlation coefficient = 0.88
Sx = standard deviation for independent variable x = 13
Sy = standard deviation for dependent variable y = 27
= mean value of independent variable x = 21
= mean value of dependent variable y = 55
Substituting these values in (2) and (3)
Putting these values of m and b in (1)
Answer:
= 25 :) hope this helps
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
To find an inverse function, reflect a graph of a function across the line y=x (and find the resulting equation)
To reflect a linear function in the line y=x, find points on f(x) and then swap their x and y coordinates.
Points on f(x): (0, -4) (2, 0) (5, 6)
Points reflected in line y=x: (-4, 0) (0, 2) (6, 5)
Plot points (-4, 0) (0, 2) (6, 5) and connect to form a straight line - this is the inverse of the function:
To determine the equation of f(x):
Choose 2 points on f(x): (5, 6) and (0, -4)
Calculate the slope (gradient) by using:
Using the slope-intercept form: y = mx + b
(where m is the slope and b is in the y-intercept)
From inspection of the graph, we can see the line crosses the y-axis at -4,
⇒ f(x) = 2x - 4
As the line is actually a line segment (with endpoints (0, -4) and (5, 6), then
f(x) = 2x - 4, 0 ≤ x ≤ 5
To determine the equation of :
Rewrite f(x) as
Swap the x and y:
Rearrange to make y the subject:
Replace y with
So the equation of the inverse is:
As the original function is a segment, then
(shown in blue on the attached diagram)
** I can't see any points labelled E and F on the original function. If they are the endpoints of the line segment of f(x), then they are (0, -4) and (5, 6) **
