For a set of data, x is the explanatory variable. Its mean is 8.2, and its standard deviation is 1.92. For the same set of data, y is the response variable. Its mean is 13.8, and its standard deviation is 3.03. The correlation was found to be 0.223. Select the correct slope and y-intercept for the least-squares line.
a. Slope = -0.35
y-intercept = -10.9
b. Slope = -0.35
y-intercept = 10.9
c. Slope = 0.35
y-intercept = -10.9
d. Slope = 0.35
y-intercept = 10.9

An engineer is going to redesign an ejection seat for an airplane. the seat was designed for pilots weighing between 120 lb and 161 lb. the new population of pilots has normally distributed weights with a mean of 125 lb and a standard deviation of 28.1 lb. a)if a pilot is randomly selected, find the probability that his weight is between 120 lb and 161 lb.the probability is approximately? b. if 36 different pilots are randomly selected, find the probability that their mean weight is between 120 lb and 161 lb. the probability is approximately? c. when redesigning the ejection seat, which probability is more relevant? . part (b) because the seat performance for a single pilot is more important. b. part (b) because the seat performance for a sample of pilots is more important. c. part (a) because the seat performance for a sample of pilots is more important. d. part (a) because the seat performance for a single pilot is more important.
