Use the following multiple regression equation. modifyingabove upper y with caret subscript i baseline equals 30 minus 2 upper x subscript 1 i baseline plus 5 upper x subscript 2 i a. interpret the meaning of the slopes. b. interpret the meaning of the y intercept.

the answer is b.)

< 1=< 2

x coordinate can be written by using the formula, x= x1 + 2/5(x2 - x1)

step-by-step explanation:

formula

x = x1 + p/w(x2 - x1)

let the line segment ab with a(x1,y1) and b(x2,y2)

a point(x,y) divide ab in the ratio, 2: 3 the x coordinate can be written as

x = x1 + p/w(x2 - x1)

here p=2 and w = 2+3

therefore,

x coordinate can be written by using the formula, x= x1 + 2/5(x2 - x1)

similarly y coordinate y = y1 + 2/5(y2 - y1)
