Table 2 shows a recent graduate’s credit card balance each month after graduation. a. Use exponential regression to fit a model to these data. b. If spending continues at this rate, what will the graduate’s credit card debt be one year after graduating?
A surgery intern has conducted a study of the sleeping habits of her colleagues and has developed a following regression equation: Y = 6 + 0.1X, where X is the number of hours working on one shift, and Y is the number of hours sleeping at night after that shift. Each work shift analyzed was between 8 and 24 hours long. All the following statements about the regression equation are true EXCEPT The minimum amount of sleep an intern would get is 6 hours For each hour working on a shift, interns slept an additional 0.1 hours The maximum amount of sleep an intern would get is 8.4 hours The minimum amount of sleep an intern would get is 6.8 hours
The number of hours 13 students spent studying for an exam and their scores on that test are described by the regression equation ŷ = 7.350x + 34.617. What is the predicted score if the student spent 6.5 hours studying?

A sports statistician was interested in the relationship between game attendance (in thousands) and the number of wins for baseball teams. Information was collected on several teams and was used to obtain the regression equation ŷ = 4.9x + 15.2, where x represents the attendance (in thousands) and ŷ is the predicted number of wins. What is the predicted number of wins for a team that has an attendance of 2,100?
A researcher found that the linear regression equation has a slope of 3 and an intercept of -6. What is the predicted value of Y for an X of 3?
The return rates of crane (Tagak) in Bulacan was studied using regression analysis and this relationship between return rate (x: % of birds that return to the colony in a givenyear) and immigration rate (y: % of new adults that join the colony per year) was established. The following regression equation was obtained: y = 31.9 – 0.34x. Based on this estimated regression equation, if the return rate were to decrease by 10% the rate of immigration to the colony would:
A movie production company was interested in the relationship between the budget to make a movie and how well that movie was received by the public. Information was collected on several movies and was used to obtain the regression equation ŷ = 0.145x + 0.136, where x represents the budget of a movie (in millions of dollars) and ŷ is the predicted score of that movie (in points from 0 to 1).
