The price of a movie ticket in a given year can be modeled by the regression equation y = 6.94(1.02^x), where y is the ticket price and x is the year. To the nearest cent, which is the best prediction of the price of a ticket in year 30? (Year 1 = 2007) A. $11.39 B. $12.57 C. $10.31 D. $1647.39

5. [2 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 8 points] The following table (Figure 2) shows midterm and final exam scores obtained for students in a course. (a) Plot the data points and infer if x and y have a linear relationship. MIDTERM FINAL 72 84 50 63 81 77 74 78 94 90 86 75 59 49 83 79 65 77 33 52 88 74 81 90 (b) Use linear regression to predict the student's final exam score based on the student's midterm score in the course (or in other words, construct the linear regression equation relating y and x). Plot the linear model and the data points on the same graph. Provide legends. (c) Predict the final exam score of a student who received 86 points on the midterm exam.

Question 14 (1 point) Write an equation in the form y = mx + b for the average cost, y, of a textbook x years after 1990. Use the data points (0, 38) and (8, 86) to find the equation. Then use the equation to predict the average cost in 2012. 1) y = 6x + 38; the cost in 2012 is $170 2) y = 6x + 38; the cost in 2012 is $86 3) y = 38x + 6; the cost in 2012 is $234 4) y = 38x + 6; the cost in 2012 is $842

A study was conducted to investigate the relationship between the resale price, $y$ eds of dollars),and the age, $x$ (in years), of midsize luxury American automobiles. The equation of the line of best fit was determined to be $\hat{y}=185.7-21.52 x$ a. Find the resale value of such a car when it is 3 years old. b. Find the resale value of such a car when it is 6 years old. c. What is the average annual decrease in the resale price of these cars?
