Question

100%

The table below shows the number of state-registered automatic weapons and the murder rate for several Northwestern states.

xx	11.9	8.1	6.9	3.8	2.3	2.7	2.4	0.7
yy	13.9	11.2	9.7	7.2	5.8	6.4	5.9	4.9

xx = thousands of automatic weapons
yy = murders per 100,000 residents

This data can be modeled by the equation y=0.83x+4.08.y=0.83x+4.08. Use this equation to answer the following;
Special Note: I suggest you verify this equation by performing linear regression on your calculator.

A) How many murders per 100,000 residents can be expected in a state with 9 thousand automatic weapons?

Answer = Round to 3 decimal places.

B) How many murders per 100,000 residents can be expected in a state with 4 thousand automatic weapons?

Answer = Round to 3 decimal places.
