Explanation / Answer

We can answer only 4 subparts of a question. Please post again for other answers.

a) There is a negative correlation. B option

b) y = 0 + 1x is called a deterministic model.

So, 0 = - 0.1551...B option

c) 1 = 8.559 C option

d) Equation:

mileage = 8.559 - 0.1551*weight

mileage = 8.559 - 0.1551* 18

mileage = 5.77 ....A option
