Do heavier cars really use more gasoline? Suppose a car is chosen at random. Let x be the weight of the car (in hundreds of pounds), and let y be the miles per gallon (mpg)

Answer is explained in the explanation section below.

Explanation:

Solution:

Note: This question is incomplete and lacks necessary data to solve. But I have found the similar question on the internet. So, I will be using the data from that question to solve this question for the sack of concept and understanding.

Data Given:

x = 27 , 44 , 32 , 47, 23 , 40, 34, 52

y = 30, 19,  24,  13 , 29,  19,  21,  14

It is given that,

∑x = 299

∑y = 167

∑ = 11887

∑ = 3773

We are asked to verify the above values manually in this question.

So,

1. ∑x = 299

Let's verify it:

∑x = 27 + 44 + 32 + 47 + 23 + 40 + 34 + 52

∑x = 299

Yes, it is equal to the given value. Hence, verified.

2. ∑y = 167

Let's verify it:

∑y = 30 + 19 +  24 + 13 + 29 + 19 +  21 +  14

∑y = 169

No, it is not equal to the given value.

3. ∑ = 11887

Let's verify it:

For this to find,  first we need to square all the value of x individually and then add them together to verify.

∑ = + + + + + + +

∑ = 11,887

Yes, it is equal to the given value. Hence, verified.

4. ∑ = 3773

Let's verify it:

Again, for this we need to find the squares of all the y values and then add them together to verify it.

∑ = + +   + + + +   +  

∑  = 3,845

No, it is not equal to the given value.
