Bighorn sheep are beautiful wild animals found throughout the western United States. Let x be the age of a bighorn sheep (in years), and let y be the mortality rate (percent that die) for this age group. For example, x = 1, y = 14 means that 14% of the bighorn sheep between 1 and 2 years old died. A random sample of Arizona bighorn sheep gave the following information: x 1 2 3 4 5 y 13.8 19.3 14.4 19.6 20.0 Σx = 15; Σy = 87.1; Σx2 = 55; Σy2 = 1554.45; Σxy = 274b) Find the equation of the least-squares line. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) ŷ = + x
