Find the equation of the regression line for the given data. Then construct a scatter plot of the data and draw the regression line.(The pair of variables have a significant correlation.) Then use the regression equation to predict the value of y for each of the given x-values, if meaningful. The number of hours 6 students spent for a test and their scores on that test are shown below.
(a) x=3 hours
(b) x=4.5 hours
(c) x=13 hours
(d) x=1.5 hours

ŷ= 6.45x + 31.5 is the equation of the regression line for the given data

How to find the equation of the regression line for a given data?

Construct the table of the data as follows:

x    >>>>     y  >>>>  x²  >>>>  y²  >>>>   xy

1                39            1            1521         39

2               45            4           2025       90

3               52             9          2704       156

4               49            16          2401        196

5               61             25         4096       305

5               72            25          5184        360

................................................................................................

20             318           80          17931       1146

.................................................................................................

∑x = 20,  ∑y = 318, ∑x²= 80, ∑xy = 1146,  n = 6 (number data points)

The linear regression equation is of the form:

ŷ = ax + b

where a and b are the slope and y-intercept respectively

a = ( n∑xy -(∑x)(∑y) ) / ( n∑x² - (∑x)² )

a = (6×1146 - 20×318) / ( 6×80-20² )

a = 6876-6360 / 480-400

a = 516 / 80

a = 6.45

x' =  ∑x/n

x' = 20/6 = 10/3

y' = ∑y/n

y' = 318/6 = 53

b = y' - ax'

b = 53 - 6.45×(10/3)

b = 53 - 21.5

b = 31.5

ŷ = ax + b

ŷ= 6.45x + 31.5

Thus,  the equation of the regression line for the given data is ŷ= 6.45x + 31.5. (The scatter plot of the data is shown in the attached image)

(a) x=3 hours

ŷ= 6.45(3) + 31.5 = 50.85

(b) x=4.5 hours

ŷ= 6.45(4.5) + 31.5 = 60.525

(c) x=13 hours

ŷ= 6.45(13) + 31.5 = 115.35

(d) x=1.5 hours

ŷ= 6.45(1.5) + 31.5 = 41.175
