- Please answer the discussion question: Explain to Jon the mistake he made and how to correct it. Provide evidence that your instructions for Jon are correct. That is, do not just say, "You did X here and you have to do Y". Instead, explain WHY can't X be done here and WHY it makes sense to do Y.arrow_forwardI need help with part B ONLY. You are the foreman of the Bar-S cattle ranch in Colorado. A neighboring ranch has calves for sale, and you are going to buy some calves to add to the Bar-S herd. How much should a healthy calf weigh? Let x be the age of the calf (in weeks), and let y be the weight of the calf (in kilograms). x 1 5 11 16 26 36 y 39 47 73 100 150 200 Complete parts (a) through (e), given Σx = 95, Σy = 609, Σx2 = 2375, Σy2 = 81,559, Σx y = 13,777, and r ≈ 0.997. (a) Make a scatter diagram of the data. (Select the correct graph.) A scatter diagram with 6 points is graphed on the x y coordinate plane. The points are located at (1, 29), (5, 37), (11, 63), (16, 90), (26, 140), (36, 190). When considering the data points as a whole, the points are loosely gathered into a mass that is lower on the left and higher on the right.
