Data was collected on the weight of a male  laboratory rat for the first 25 weeks after its birth. The linear regression equation is 
y= 40x+100, where x is number of weeks and y is weight in grams. 
What does the y-intercept mean in context of the problem?

• The predicted weight of the rat in year 0. 
• The predicted weight of the rat at birth. 
• The current weight of the rat. 
• The average increase in the rat's weight.

The linear regression equation is y = 61.93x - 1.79.  According to the model, the slope can be interpreted as:

• After 0 hours of driving, they went 61.93 miles.
• They drove at a speed of 61.93 miles per hour.
• They drove 61.93 miles total.
• They drove 61.93 hours total.

Two variables have a positive association when

• the value of one variable tends to increase as the other variable increases.

• the value of one variable tends to increase as the other variable decreases.

• the value of one variable tends to increase regardless how the other variable change.

• the values of both variables are always positive.

Answer explanation

Both variables move in the same direction although the numbers are negative.

The correlation coefficient, r is used to determine

• y values given values of x.

• x values given values of y.

• the strength and direction of relationship between x and y.

• none of these.
