The cost of a service call to fix a washing machine can be expressed by the linear function y = 45 x + 35, where y represents the total cost and x represents the number of hours it takes to fix the machine. What does the y-intercept represent? the cost for each hour it takes to repair the machine the service fee for coming to look at the machine the total cost for fixing the washing machine the amount of time that it takes to arrive at the home to make the repairs Mark this and return

Given are five observations for two variables, x and y. xi 1 2 3 4 5 yi 3 7 5 11 14 which of the following is a scatter diagrams accurately represents the data? what does the scatter diagram developed in part (a) indicate about the relationship between the two variables? try to approximate the relationship betwen x and y by drawing a straight line through the data. which of the following is a scatter diagrams accurately represents the data? develop the estimated regression equation by computing the values of b 0 and b 1 using equations (14.6) and (14.7) (to 1 decimal). = + x use the estimated regression equation to predict the value of y when x = 4 (to 1 decimal). =
