Question

The table below gives the list price and the number of bids received for five randomly selected items sold through online auctions. Using this data, consider the equation of the regression line, $hat{y} = b_0 + b_1x$, for predicting the number of bids an item will receive based on the list price. Keep in mind, the correlation coefficient may or may not be statistically significant for the data given. Remember, in practice, it would not be appropriate to use the regression line to make a prediction if the correlation coefficient is not statistically significant.

The table below gives the list price and the number of bids received for five randomly selected items sold through online auctions. Using this data,
consider the equation of the regression line, haty = b0 + b1x, for predicting the number of bids an item will receive based on the list price. Keep in
mind, the correlation coefficient may or may not be statistically significant for the data given. Remember, in practice, it would not be appropriate to
use the regression line to make a prediction if the correlation coefficient is not statistically significant.

Step 1

5 and the estimated y-intercept is 31. So the estimated value of y when x=31 is $5.50. Step 2 of 6: The estimated y-intercept is 31 and the estimated value of y when x=0 is $0. So the estimated value of y when x=31 is $31.00. Step 3 of 6: Show more…

Step 1 of 6: Find the estimated slope. Round your answer to three decimal places. Step 2 of 6: Find the estimated y-intercept. Round your answer to three decimal places. Step 3 of 6: Find the estimated value of y when x=31. Round your answer to three decimal places. Step 4 of 6: Determine the value of the dependent variable y-hat at x=0. Step 5 of 6: Find the error prediction when x=31. Round your answer to three decimal places. Step 6 of 6: Find the value of the coefficient of determination. Round your answer to three decimal places. Keep in mind, the correlation coefficient may or may not be statistically significant for the data given. Remember, in practice, it would not be appropriate to use the regression line to make a prediction if the correlation coefficient is not statistically significant.
