Dan's grandmother gave him $30 for his birthday. He decides to put $20 in a box for saving. Every week his parents give him $5 for his allowance. He decides to start adding $4 of his allowance to the box every week. What is the regression line for predicting the amount of money (ŷ) that will be in his box from x weeks of adding to the box?

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]y=4\cdot{x}+20[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the regresssion line be linear because of a constant amount of money coming in. Let y be the total amount of money in the box and x the weeks of adding to the box:

[tex]y=m\cdot{x}+c[/tex]

We know that he puts $20 in the box from his birthday and $4 every week for x weeks. Therefore the total amount of money will be:

[tex]y=4\cdot{x}+20[/tex]
