A regression was run to determine if there is a relationship between hours of TV watched per day (x) and number of situps a person can do (y). The results of the regression were: y=ax+b a=-0.859 b-37.904 r²-0.589824 r=-0.768 Use this to predict the number of situps a person who watches 11.5 hours of TV can do (to one decimal place)
The annual profits for a company are given in the following table, where x represents the number of years since 2004, and y represents the profit in thousands of dollars. Write the linear regression equation that represents this set of data, rounding all coefficients to the nearest tenth.
