- Dr. Lillian Fok, a New Orleans psychologist, specializes in treating patients who are agoraphobic (i.e., afraid to leave their homes). The following table indicates how many patients Dr. Fok has seen each year for the past 10 years. It also indicates what the robbery rate was in New Orleans during the same year. Year Number of Patients Robbery Rate per 1,000 Population The simple linear regression equation that shows the best relationship between the number of patients and the robbery rate is (round your responses to three decimal places) where y Number of Patients and x = Robbery Rate. = 1 2 3 4 6 7 36 33 40 41 55 60 58.3 61.1 73.4 75.7 81.1 89.0 101.1 5 40 8 54 94.8 9 58 103.3 10 61 116.2arrow_forwardThe table shows the average weekly wages (in dollars) for state government employees and federal government employees for 8 years.

BOD is hard to measure accurately. Total organic carbon (TOC) is easy to measure, so it is common to measure TOC and use regression to predict BOD. A typical regression equation for water entering a municipal treatment plant is BOD = -55.47 + 1.505 TOC Both BOD and TOC are measured in milligrams per liter of water. (a) What does the slope of this line say about the relationship between BOD and TOC? TOC rises (falls) by 1.505 mg/l for every 55.47 mg/l increase (decrease) in BOD BOD rises (falls) by 55.47 mg/l for every 1 mg/l increase (decrease) in TOC TOC rises (falls) by 1.505 mg/l for every 1 mg/l increase (decrease) in BOD BOD rises (falls) by 1.505 mg/l for every 1 mg/l increase (decrease) in TOCarrow_forward
