Answer:

  (x, y) = (80, -68)

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract the second equation from the first.

  (3x +y) -(x +y) = (172) -(12)

  2x = 160 . . . . . . . . . simplify

  x = 80 . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

  y = 12 -x = 12 -80 = -68 . . . . . find y from the second equation

The solution is (x, y) = (80, -68).

Rashid [163]

Answer:

0.940

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

Age in years(X) _____Height(Y)

7 _________ 47.3

8 _________48.8

5 __________41.3

8 _________ 50.4

8 ___________51

7 __________47.1

7 __________46.9

7 ___________48

9 __________51.2

8 __________51.2

5 __________40.3

8 __________48.9

6 __________45.2

5 __________41.9

8 __________49.6

The proportion of Variation explained by the line of best fit in a regression model can be determined by calculating the Coefficient of determination (R²) of the model.

Using the online R² calculator, the variation in the sample values of height which is estimated by the model is 0.9696² = 0.94012416.

Hence about 0.94 or 94% variation in sample values of height is estimated by the model while (1 - 0.94 = 0.06 or 6%) is explained by other factors.
