Stephen collected data from a travel website. The data included a hotel's distance from Times Square in Manhattan and the cost of a room for one weekend night in August. A table containing these data appears below.

Stephen calculated the linear regression equation to be y = -7.8x + 246.3. Using this equation, find the cost of a
room 5 city blocks away from Time Square.
1) $195
2) $207
3) $238
4) $285
What’s the answer?

$207

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Data:

X : Distance From Times Square (city blocks)

Y: Cost of a Room (dollars) (y)

The linear regression model generated for the data :

y = -7.8x + 246.3

y = predicted variable ; - 7. 8 = slope of model ; x = predictor variable ; 246.3 = intercept

Using the model:

The cost of a Room 5 block away :

x = 5

y = -7.8(5) + 246.3

y = - 39 + 246.3

y = $207.3

sum= when you add is how much the whole amount is

distance= when you use angles and it means how far it goes

step-by-step explanation:

location: point 0

step-by-step explanation:

well, -8 to 10 on a number line is 18 spaces.

1/9 of 18 is 2.

so, 4/9 of 18 must be 8.

8 spaces from -8 (a) is 0.

so, 4/9 of the way from -8 to 10 is 0!
