(a) Assuming that the relationship between brain weight y and age t is linear, write a linear model for the data. (b) What is the slope and what does it tell you about brain weight? (c) Use your model to estimate the average brain weight at age 2. (d) Use your school’s library, the Internet, or some other reference source to find the actual average brain weight at age 2. How close was your estimate? (e) (d) Do you think your model could be used to determine the average brain weight of an adult? Explain.arrow_forwardDemand for Candy Bars In this problem you will determine a linear demand equation that describes the demand for candy bars in your class. Survey your classmates to determine what price they would be willing to pay for a candy bar. Your survey form might look like the sample to the left. a Make a table of the number of respondents who answered yes at each price level. b Make a scatter plot of your data. c Find and graph the regression line y=mp+b, which gives the number of respondents y who would buy a candy bar if the price were p cents. This is the demand equation. Why is the slope m negative? d What is the p-intercept of the demand equation? What does this intercept tell you about pricing candy bars? Would you buy a candy bar from the vending machine in the hallway if the price is as indicated. Price Yes or No 50 75 1.00 1.25 1.50 1.75 2.00arrow_forward
