Answer 1

Answer:

The predicted number of wins for a team that has an attendance of 2,100 is 25.49.

Step-by-step explanation:

The regression  equation for the relationship between game attendance (in thousands) and the number of  wins for baseball teams is as follows:

$\hat y = 4.9\cdot x + 15.2$

Here,

y = number of wins

x = attendance (in thousands)

Compute the number of wins for a team that has an attendance of 2,100 as follows:

$\hat y = 4.9\cdot x + 15.2$

  $=(4.9\times 2.1)+15.2\\=10.29+15.2\\=25.49$

Thus, the predicted number of wins for a team that has an attendance of 2,100 is 25.49.
