y=ax+b
a=−1.077
b=30.98
r2=0.744769

Answer:

19

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we have been given this data

y=ax+b

a=−1.077

b=30.98

r2=0.744769

r=−0.863

Where

X = number of situps

Y = number of hours spent watching tv

We have x = 11

Inputting this into the formula we have

Y = (-1.077)(11) + 30.98

Y = −11.847 + 30.98

Y = 19.133

Which is approximately 19

Therefore we conclude that a person who watches TV for 11 hours can do 19 situps.
