Use the data and story to answer the following questions The table below shows the number of state-registered automatic weapons and the murder rate for several Northwestern states. 11.3 8 7.1 3.8 2.7 2.3 2.2 0.6 y | 13.9| 10.8| 10.2| 7.4 6 6.3 6.1 4.6 x = thousands of automatic weapons y = murders per 100,000 residents Use your calculator to determine the equation of the regression line. (Round to 2 decimal places) Determine the regression equation in y = bo + by(x) form and write it below.
Inverse Normal Distribution
The method used for finding the corresponding z-critical value in a normal distribution using the known probability is said to be an inverse normal distribution. The inverse normal distribution is a continuous probability distribution with a family of two parameters.
Mean, Median, Mode
It is a descriptive summary of a data set. It can be defined by using some of the measures. The central tendencies do not provide information regarding individual data from the dataset. However, they give a summary of the data set. The central tendency or measure of central tendency is a central or typical value for a probability distribution.
Z-Scores
A z-score is a unit of measurement used in statistics to describe the position of a raw score in terms of its distance from the mean, measured with reference to standard deviation from the mean. Z-scores are useful in statistics because they allow comparison between two scores that belong to different normal distributions.

x = thousands of automatic weapons
y = murders per 100,000 residents
Use your calculator to determine the equation of the regression line. (Round to 2 decimal places)
Determine the regression equation in
y = bo + by(x) form and write it below.
A) How many murders per 100,000 residents can be expected in a state with 4.4 thousand
automatic weapons?
Answer =
Round to 4 decimal places.
B) How many murders per 100,000 residents can be expected in a state with 5.8 thousand
automatic weapons?
Answer =
Round to 4 decimal places.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fab27fe61-8388-42e9-a9c2-d42b80489ac3%2F0ac1d520-bea6-48fa-aa8e-f8d3d38246b3%2Fm61o6mn_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
