Question 1055989: The regression equation below relates the scores student in an advanced statistics course received for homework completed and the subsequent midterm exam. Homework scores are based on assignments that proceeded the exam. The maximum homework score a student could obtain was 500 and the maximum midterm score was 350. The regression line that was obtained is given by:
Y= -94.4 + .91x
If a student had a homework score of 420, the midterm score would be predicted to be (round to an integer:
A) 298
B) 378
C) 336
D) None of the answer choices is correct

the homework score is independent (known) and on the x-axis. The midterm exam is on the y-axis
y=0.91x-94.4; x=420
y=382.2-94.4=287.8, or 288.
D.
