b. As shown in the above graph, the equation for the best fit line is

y = 32.74x – 0.962

From the equation,

Slope = 32.74

Intercept = -0.962

Calculated values of y for each value of x, using the best fit line equation

X 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5

y 2.312 5.586 8.86 12.134 15.408

d. R-squared is a statistical measure of how close the data are to the fitted regression line. It

is also known as the coefficient of determination, or the coefficient of multiple

determinations for multiple regressions. 100% indicates that the model explains all the

variability of the response data around its mean.

So, the given data fit well R squared is 0.999 indicates that the model explains 99.9% of

the variability of the response data around its mean.
