In the fall sta 2023 beginning of the semester survey, students were asked how many parties they attended every week and how many text messages they sent per day. the researcher decided to make the number of parties attended per week the explanatory variable and the number of text messages sent per day the response variable. the least squares regression line for this relationship is y-hat = 64.96 + 25.41x. one student attended 2 parties that week and sent 20 text messages per day. what is the residual?

-95.78

Step-by-step explanation:

As the researcher decided to make the number of parties attended per week the explanatory variable, this would be variable x in the regression line, and of course, the variable y would be the number of text messages sent per day.

After constructing the linear regression equation, the researcher found that an approximate value for the actual value of y could be represented by the line

Since this is an approximate value, it is not expected that it coincides with the actual value of y. We define then the residual for each value of x as the difference between the actual value of y and the approximation for the given x.

For the value x = 2 (the student attended 2 parties that week) the actual value of y is 20 (the student sent 20 text messages per day that week).

The approximate value of y would be according to the regression line

Hence, the residual value for x=2 would be

use google you idiot omg you're so annoying

step-by-step explanation:

that is the sum

step-by-step explanation:

there are no other answers without knowing the variables values
