Respuesta :

Answer:

  9.08

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the predicted value of y, put the x-value where x is in the equation and do the arithmetic.

Substitution

  [tex]\hat{y}=134.63-2.79x\qquad\text{given}\\\\\hat{y}=134.63-2.79(45) = 134.63-125.55\qquad\text{use 45 for x}\\\\\boxed{\hat{y}=9.08}\qquad\text{simplify}[/tex]
