Step 1
To calculate the squared deviation for each value, we subtract the mean (X) from each value (x) and then square the result. For the value 0: (0 - 2.19)^2 = 4.7961 For the value 1: (1 - 2.19)^2 = 1.3761 For the value 2: (2 - 2.19)^2 = 0.0361 For the value Show more…

A simple random sample of 50 families has produced the following statistics: Number of children in the family (x): mean = 2.1, standard deviation = 1.4 Annual Gross Income (y): mean = 34,250, standard deviation = 10,540 r = 0.75 The linear regression equation relating these variables based on the data of this study is Number of children = 5,646 (income) + 22,392 Number of children = 22,392 (income) + 5,646 Income = 34,350 + .0001 (number of children) Income = .0001 (number of children) - 1.312 Income = 5,646 (number of children) + 22, 392
