Pig weight gain
feed ratio of wheat & corn pig weight gain, 2 months (in pounds)
75% wheat & 25% corn 40 pounds
67% wheat & 33% corn 47 pounds
50% wheat & 50% corn 51 pounds
33% wheat & 67% corn 54 pounds
25% wheat & 75% corn 61 pounds

taylor and amad are raising a pig for the 4-h livestock show. they wanted to raise the biggest, fattest pig to sell at the fair. they tried different blends of pig feed on the piglets. they recorded the average amount of weight the pigs gained in the data table.

based on taylor and amad's data, how can you explain the differences in the amount of weight the pigs gained?
a) some piglets ate longer than others.
b) the pigs preferred pure feed to blended feed.
c) the more corn in the feed, the more weight the pigs gained.
d) the more wheat in the feed, the more weight the pigs gained.

From the data given about these pigs in reference to their weight gained, and corn to heat ratio, the right explanation is that the more the corn in the feed, the more the weight gained by the pigs. The weight of the pig is directly proportional to the corn in the feed and inversely proportional to the weight also. Option C is the best.

Explanation:

If the weight of the pig is represented as W , the corn ratio is c and wheat ratio is H, The, W=KC/H. This will lead to the following calculation for the constant of the relationship.

40=0.75K/0.25, K= 40/3 =13.3>>>>>>>>>>>1

47=0.67K/0.33, K= 47/2 = 23.5>>>>>>>>>>>2

51 =0.5K/0.5, K= 51/1 = 51>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>3

54=0.33K/0.67, K= 54/0.5= 108>>>>>>>>>>4

61 = 0.25K/0.75, K = 61/0.33= 183>>>>>>>>5. The linear regression will not be the best tool to explain the relationship. The constant of the relationship is found to differ from each other because of the various in vivo factors and other factors that are influenced by the corn-rich diet.
