Brainliest for the correct answer!! A calculator was used to perform a linear regression on the values in the table. The results are shown to the right of the table. What is the line of best fit?A. y = –0.984x + 13.5B. y = –2.9x + 13.5C.–0.984 = –2.9x + 13.5D. y = 13.5x – 2.9

B. y = –2.9x + 13.5

Step-by-step explanation:

You can try to use the calculator to determine the best line for the values given; you will se that the calculator form, for the linear function is

y = a + bx, where a is the y intercept and b is the slope.

To determine the slope, we apply a formula, to calculate the product of the two xy and, x², plus the sum of each column.

x    y    xy    x²  

1  .  11 = 11 → x² = 1² = 1

2 .  8 = 16 → x² = 2² = 4

3 .  4 = 12 → x² = 3² = 9

4 .  1 = 4 → x² = 4² = 16

5 .  0 = 0 → x² = 5² = 25

Total x = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 = 15

Total y = 11 + 8 + 4+ 1 + 0 = 24

Sum of xy = 11 + 16 + 12 + 4 + 0 = 43

Sum of x² =  1 + 4 + 9 + 16 + 25 = 55

n = 5

So b =  5 (43) - (15) . (24) / 5 (55) - 15² = -2.9

a =  y media - b . x media → a = 24/5 - (-2.9) . 15/5 = 13.5
