You run a regression analysis on a bivariate set of data (n = 52). With ¯x=67.8 and ¯y=62.9 you obtain the regression equation
y=-1.498x - 46.995
with a correlation coefficient of r=-0.46. You want to predict what value (on average) for the response variable will be obtained from a value of 150 as the explanatory variable.
What is the predicted response value?
