Question 672219: A set of X and Y scores has Mx=4, SSx=10, MY=5, SSY=40, and SP=40. What is the
regression equation for predicting Y from X?
a, =0.25X-4
b, =4X+4
c, =X-6
d, =4X-11
If there is a negative correlation between X and Y then the regression equation, Y=bX+a
will have_____
a, b>0
b, b<0
c, a>0
d, a<0

Hi,

Mx=4,My=5, SSx=10,  SSy=40, and SP(Sum of Products) =40

Regression Line: y = bx + a

 b = SP/SSx = 40/10 = 4 

 a = My -bMx = 5 - 4•4 = -11

Regression Line is 



negative correlation:  b < 0



Regression Line: y = bx + a

b =                                   

and
