REGRESSION 1. In a study, nine tires of a particular brand Each tire was driven a particular controlled distance (measured in thousands o depth was measured after the drive. Tread depth is measured in "mils." Here, I I were driven on a track under identical conditions. measured in thousands of miles) and the tread mil is 0.001 inch. 5 10 15 20 25 30 Miles(x 1000) The equation of the least-squares regression line is: Tread depth 360.64- 11.39x (thousands of miles) Also, -0.953.

Solution:
Question 1: Here, the given are
Tread depth = 360.64-11.39x ( thousands of miles ) (Given)
We have to find the tread depth. Also x=16 (given) tire driven thousand miles
put x=16 in given regression equation
Tread depth=360.64- 11.39*16
=360.64-182.24
=178.4
178.4 is the tread depth of a tire driven 16 thousand miles.
