Suppose a professor records the number of days absent and the final exam score for the students in his class. Use this data in the table below to answer questions a through d. No. of Absences, x 0 1 2 3 4 0 Final Exam Score, y 84.1 84.2 81.2 76.3 68.3 Click the icon to view a table of critical values for the correlation coefficient. O C. The slope indicates the average final exam score. O D. The slope indicates the average number of absences. O E. It is not appropriate to interpret the slope because it is not equal to zero. es fo Choose the best interpretation for the y-intercept. ade O A. The y-intercept indicates the average number of absences for the population. 10 O B. The y-intercept indicates the average final exam score for the population. C. The y-intercept indicates the average final exam score for a student with no absences. 5 3 O D. The y-intercept indicates the final exam score of the student with the most absences. O E. It is not appropriate to interpret the y-intercept because it is outside the scope of the model. (c) Predict the final exam score for a student who misses one class period and compute the residual. Is the final exam score above or below average for this number of 14 absences? The predicted final exam score is. (Round to two decimal places as needed.) 7 4
