Suppose Ms. Carr is interested in the relationship between her students' 9th grade math final exam scores and the number of hours they spent studying during the year. She collects information for 15 ninth grade students and uses it to obtain the regression equation, where ?x is the number of hours spent studying during the year and ?̂ y^ is the predicted final exam score. ?̂= 1.48+75.64   The scatter plot displays her results.   What is the predicted ?̂ y^‑value when a student spends 13 hours studying? Round your answer to one decimal place.   y^= ?   Select the correct interpretation. The above predicted value of ?̂ y^ is _____   a. the predicted score of 13 out of 15 students. b. the predicted final math test score if a student studies 13 hours during the year. c. the math final test score that 13 students beat. d. what any student will score on the final exam if they study at least 13 hours.

The number of Master’s degrees granted at a particular university is given for selected years in the table below.   Year 2005 2010 2015 2020 Number of Master’s Degrees 58 69 76 83   Use the linear regression equation for this data to predict the number of Master’s degrees that this university will grant in the year 2021.    Blank 1. Calculate the answer by read surrounding text.  Round to the nearest whole number of Master's degrees.

While collecting data on shoe sizes (y) compared to heights in inches (x) of male students in the class a student found that the shoe sizes ranged from size 7 to size 11 and the heights of the students ranged from 60 to 72 inches. The student ran a linear regression to get the function = 1 -x- 3 13 where y is the shoe size and is the height of the person in inches. What would be the shoe size for a student who was 73 inches tall? Shoe sizes only show up in incriments of 0.5 (ie. 7, 7.5, 8, 8.5, 9, 9.5, ....) so round to the nearest 1/2 shoe size. Show all your work.

A researcher is using the regression model Y=61+4.5X to predict a persons score on a happiness questionnaire based on their number of friends Predict the happiness score for someone with 8 friends

The table shows the average weekly wages (in dollars) for state government employees and federal government employees for 8 years. The equation of the regression line is y = 1.493x - 83.403. Complete parts (a) and (b) below. A Average Weekly Wages (state), x Average Weekly Wages (federal), y 764 1003 766 1048 791 1119 (a) Find the coefficient of determination and interpret the result. r² = 0 (Round to three decimal places as needed.) 800 1152 843 1201 887 1250 924 1277 939 1306

The accompanying data are the number of wins and the earned run averages (mean number of earned runs allowed per nine innings pitched) for eight baseball pitchers in a recent season. Find the equation of the regression line. Then construct a scatter plot of the data and draw the regression line. Then use the regression equation to predict the value of y for each of the given x-values, if meaningful. If the x-value is not meaningful to predict the value of y, explain why not. (a) x = 5 wins Click the icon to view the table of numbers of wins and earned run average. (b) x= 10 wins (c) x=21 wins (d) x= 15 wins The equation of the regression line is y = x+ | (Round to two decimal places as needed.) !!

There is a linear relationship between the number of chirps made by the stiped ground cricket and the air temperature. It was determined that the linear regression model is: y = 25.2 + 3.3x where x is the number of chirps per minute and y is the estimated temperature in degrees Fahrenheit. What is the temperature if a cricket chirps 18 times? Round to the nearest degree. Di not include units.

For 39 nations, a correlation of 0.887 was found between y = Internet use (%) and x = gross domestic product (GDP, in thousands of dollars per capita). The regression equation is y = -3.68 + 1.73x. Complete parts (a) through (c). a. Based on the correlation value, the slope had to be positive. Why? A. The slope and correlation are positive because gross domestic product could not be negative. B. The correlation and the slope are positive because the y-intercept is negative. C. That is a very unusual fact, because the slope and correlation usually have different signs. D. Although slope and correlation usually have different values, they always have the same sign.
