Based on the study's data and the regression line, answer the following. (a) From the regression equation, what is the predicted sleep time (in hours) when the GAS score is 4.2? Round your answer to one or more decimal places. (b) From the regression equation, what is the predicted sleep time (in hours) when the GAS score is 7.0? Round your answer to one or more decimal places. 0
The well-known psychologist Dr. Elbod has established what he calls his Generalized Anxiety Scale (GAS). The GAS, which is a scale from 0 to 10, measures the "general anxiety" of an individual, with higher GAS scores corresponding to more anxiety. (Dr. Elbod's assessment of anxiety is based on a variety of measurements, both physiological and psychological.)We're interested in making predictions about individuals' sleep behavior based on their GAS scores. The bivariate data below give the GAS score (denoted by x) and the number of hours of sleep last night (denoted by y) for each of the fifteen adults in a study. The least-squares regression line for these data has equation Ŷ=8.48-0.28x This line, along with a
