Question
The defending attorney Mr. Justin Case was interested in how a lengthy trial could affect how
long a jury would deliberate on a case (and see if he should just cut to the chase). He observed a
sample of courtroom trials and noticed the following:
Days in
Trial (X) 5 2 6 4 5 6 2 4 2 1
Hours
Deliberation (Y) 4 4 1 3 1 3 9 2 3 7
2) What is the Y-intercept?

X2 + © 2021 Hawkes Learning JIS Aarrow_forwardSometimes we have data that can be paired together, such as height and weight of an individual. When two variables are measured and paired together, we have what we call paired data. When we have paired data, we can plot the results using a scatterplot. This will give us a visual to determine if there is a relationship between the variables of interest. For two variable relationships, we can often report the data as ordered pairs in (x, y) format. Our x-variable in this case is known as the explanatory variable, and the y-variable is known as the response variable. We use values of x to predict y. If there appears to be a linear relationship between the two variables, we can create a least squares regression line. This is a line that “best” fits the dataset we have. The result will be a linear equation and we can use this equation to predict future values. For simple linear regression (ordered pairs with only two variables), the general form of a regression line follows:�̂=β0+β1�,…arrow_forward
