Question

A regression was run to determine if there is a relationship between hours of TV watched per day ( ) and number of situps a person can do ( ). The results of the regression were: y = ax+b a = -1.213 b = 24.09 r2 = 0.451584 r = -0.672 Use this to predict the number of situps a person who watches 8 hour(s) of TV can do, and please round your answer to a whole number.

          A regression was run to determine if there is a relationship between hours of TV watched per day (
) and number of situps a person can do (
).

The results of the regression were:
y = ax+b
a = -1.213
b = 24.09
r2 = 0.451584
r = -0.672
Use this to predict the number of situps a person who watches 8 hour(s) of TV can do, and please round your answer to a whole number.
