Question
Statistics students in Oxnard College sampled 11 textbooks in the Condor bookstore and recorded the number of pages in each textbook and its cost. The bivariate data are shown below:
Number of Pages (xx) | Cost(yy) |
---|---|
221 | 33.47 |
841 | 70.87 |
446 | 41.22 |
439 | 33.73 |
251 | 30.57 |
556 | 50.92 |
644 | 62.08 |
831 | 72.17 |
394 | 31.58 |
293 | 30.51 |
393 | 38.51 |
A student calculates a linear model
yy = _____x_______ + . (Please show your answers to two decimal places)

(In fact, can you think of any reasons why these variables may not be directly related to each other?) Also, the purpose of this question is not to make a political statement about guns or gun control. It's only to illustrate that data such as these sometimes have mathematical relationships that can be modeled with linear equations. Those relationships should always be questioned and examined carefully. With that said, these data can be modeled by the equation y = 0.87z + 3.95. Use this equation to answer the following; A) If this model is oconsistent, how many murders per 100,000 residents can be expected in a state with 8.7…arrow_forward
- A certain type of concrete mix is designed to withstand 3000 pounds per square inch (psi) of pressure. The concrete is poured into casting cylinders and allowed to set for 28 days.
