In constructing the regression equation for predicting electricity bills (BILLS) from number of people in an area (AREA), it was calculated that the slope is 57.35 and it was known that the mean BILL is PhP 1,327.21 and the mean NUMBER is 6.31. What is the value of the intercept? O None of the Choices O PhP 768.08 O PhP 965.33 O PhP 611.10 O PhP 884.55
A pediatrician wants to determine the relation that exists between a child's height (x) and head circumference (y). She randomly selects 11 children from her practice and measures their height and head circumference in inches. She finds that the correlation is 0.477 and the regression equation is y = 0.149x + 8.15 What proportion of the variation in head circumference can be explained by the variation in the values of height? % Report answer as a percentage accurate to one decimal place.
