Answer:
option B
Step-by-step explanation:
Regression models are not usually made use of if the need is to predict population, which has to do with number present as well as the stocks of large companies and so on, reason being that their variable levels or confidence interval are usually out of range of those used for a regression
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the slope of a line you must find where the points intersect, use the formula for slope, substitute values, and simplify if needed.
In this case we were already given the points for slope:


Slope formula:

Now substitute:

Solve using KCC: (Keep, Change, Change)


=
Because the slope isn't a negative you do not need to simplify the answer.
Hope this helps.

A, Adding a constant does nothing to the standard deviation
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm gonna assume s=standard deviation
The standard deviation is just the square root of the second moment minus the first moment squared
Because we were not told otherwise I think it's pretty safe to assume that all events are equally likely
Let's start by calculating the first moment (AKA The mean)
1/5(8+16+14+8+16)= 12.4
Let's then find the second moment
1/5(8²+16²+14²+8²+16²)= 167.2
√(167.2-12.4²)=3.6661
b.
While I could just tell you that adding something to the standard deviation (and the variane as well) doesn't do anything let's calculate it for fun
same process
.2(16+24+22+16+24)= 20.4
.2(16²+24²+22²+16²+24²)=429.6
√(429.6-20.4²)= 3.6661
