Question 1120342: M12 #11
You run a regression analysis on a bivariate set of data (n=61). You obtain the regression equation
y=−2.095x+43.992
with a correlation coefficient of r=−0.51 (which is significant at α=0.01). You want to predict what value (on average) for the explanatory variable will give you a value of 130 on the response variable.
What is the predicted explanatory value?
x =

.
Substitute y= 130 into the given equation to get


130 - =2.095x + 43.992


Then solve it for x.
