Question 866401: In a statistics course, a linear regression equation was computed to predict the final exam score from the score on the first test. The equation of the least-squares regression line was
y = 10 + 0.9x
where y represents the final exam score and x is the score on the first exam. Suppose Joe scores a 90 on the first exam. What would be the predicted value of his score on the final exam?
