Question #526b2

Answer 1

-There are more points above the best fit line than below it. Yes (barely) (4 vs. 3)
-The slope of the best fit line is positive. YES (barely) - 0.2554

Explanation:

-Data points are more clustered than spread out. NO
-The residual for point (39,940) is 12.75. NO
-The equation for the best fit line is y=−6.083x+930.016. NO

-There are more points above the best fit line than below it. Yes (barely)

-The correlation coefficient is 0.2. NO
-The equation for the best fit line is y=6.083x+930.016. NO

-The slope of the best fit line is positive. YES (barely)

First, construct the linear regression best-fit line. Calculate/record the slope and equation. Observe for distribution. Compute the correlation coefficient R.

`R^2 = 0.000027796`, Slope = 0.2554, Intercept = 1129
Line = `Na = 0.2554(Fat) + 1129`
