A mathematics teacher wanted to see the correlation between test scores and homework. The homework grade (x) and test grade (y) are given in the accompanying table. Write the linear regression equation that represents this set of data, rounding all coefficients to the nearest tenth. Using this equation, find the projected test grade, to the nearest integer, for a student with a homework grade of 34. SOMEONE HELP ME WITH THIS RIGHT NOW. please

23

Step-by-step explanation:

Using an online calculator and plugging the values in, we get our equation of y=mx + b to become y = 1.2x - 17.8 .

Plugging 34 in for x, we get 1.2(34) - 17.8 = 23 for their projected test grade

c. y = 1/4 x + 5

step-by-step explanation:

first, put the equation of the line on the graph into slope-intercept form

(y = mx + b):   y = -4x + 8

second, a perpendicular line has to have "an opposite/reciprocal slope" to the original slope. so, find the "m" value in your original equation (it's -4, right? )

original slope: m = -4   perpendicular slope: change the sign to its opposite and find the reciprocal ("flip" the number)

new slope is now positive (b/c the original slope was negative 4), and it's 1/4 (not the original slope of 4 or 4/1)
