9. Determine which model would represent the data set based only on the difference in the y-values. a. b. X 0 f(x) -12 X -1 f(x) -32 1 -10 1 16 2 -6 3 4 3 0 5 -4 4 8 7 -8

Below is data for two variables, X and Y.  Answer the questions that follow.  X Y X-MX Y-MY (X-MX)2 (Y-MY)2 (X-MX)(Y-MY) 3 3 -2 -1 4 1 2 4 3 -1 -1 1 1 ___ 6 4 1 ___ 1 0 0 7 6 2 2 ___ 4 4   r = ____

2. Find the least linear fit to the following data: * * 2 3 2 -3 -3 -1 55

The following data is the number of tickets sold and the jackpot value for the Mega Millions lottery. The jackpot value is in millions of dollars and the number of tickets sold is in millions. Jackpot value 334 127 300 227 202 180 164 145 255 Number of tickets sold 54 16 41 27 23 18 18 16 26 r= 0.947 tickets sold -10.87 +0.17 (jackpot value) Which is the independent variable and which is the dependent variable? X= independent variable = Y= dependent variable Interpret ². Interpret the slope. Predict the number of tickets sold when the jackpot value is 500 million dollars. Would you feel comfortable using the model for this value? Why or why not.

Suppose a researcher collects data on the air pollution levels, measured in milligrams per cubic meter, for both urban and rural areas in 35 states. The data is plotted with urban air pollution levels on the horizontal axis and rural air pollution levels on the vertical axis. Nevada is an outlier in the ?x‑direction. What must be true about this state? The urban air pollution levels for this state are much higher or lower than the rest of the states in the data set. The rural air pollution levels for this state are much higher or much lower than the rest of the states in the data set. This state is an influential observation. The rural air pollution levels for this state are much higher or lower than other states in the data set that have similar urban air pollution levels. The absolute value of the residual of this state is large.

Please answer both subparts with explanation . Without using Excel. I will really upvote. Thanks
