In a statistics course, a linear regression equation was computed to predict the final exam score based on the score on the first test of the term. The equation was y=25+0.7x where y is the final exam score and x is the score on the first test. George scored 80 on the first test. On the final exam George scored 85. What is the value of his residual?

• -4

• 4

• 4.5

• 5
