(B) What is the least squares regression line

(C) According to the model in (b), for every increase of $1000 in income, the ulcer rate (per 100 population) will go down by _ points.

B) y = -9.98×10⁻⁵ x + 13.95

C) 0.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Excel, the least squares regression line, rounded to two decimal places, is y = -9.98×10⁻⁵ x + 13.95.

The slope is -9.98×10⁻⁵, so if x increases by 1000, then y changes by -9.98×10⁻² = -0.0998.  Rounded to one decimal place, the ulcer rate per 100 population will go down by 0.1 points.

answer: the answer is one of

step-by-step explanation:   we are given to write a proper fraction where the whole is divided into an even number of equal parts less than ten, and an odd number of those parts exist.

an even number less than 10 may be one of 2, 4, 6 or 8. so, the whole may be one of these four evens.

now, an odd number of these parts must exist, so the numerator must be an odd number, one of 1, 3, 5 or 7. it cannot be 9 because then the fraction will become improper.

thus, our fraction may be one of the following

step-by-step explanation:

we are given

since, we have to isolate x on anyone side

so, we can move all x terms on one side

subtract both sides by 2x

add both sides by 9

divide both sides by 4

we get
