An economist is studying the job market in Denver area neighborhoods. Letxrepresent the total number of jobs in a given neighborhood, and letyrepresent the number of entry-level jobs in the same neighborhood. A sample of six Denver neighborhoods gave the following information (units in hundreds of jobs).
Complete parts (a) through (e), given Σx= 196, Σy= 28, Σx2= 7406, Σy2= 164, Σxy= 1075, andr≈ 0.877.
(c) Find x, and y. Then find the equation of the least-squares line =a+bx. (Round your answers for x and y to two decimal places. Round your answers foraandbto three decimal places.)
(e) Find the value of the coefficient of determinationr2. What percentage of the variation inycan beexplainedby the corresponding variation inxand the least-squares line? What percentage isunexplained? (Round your answer forr2to three decimal places. Round your answers for the percentages to one decimal place.)
(f) For a neighborhood withx= 30 hundred jobs, how many are predicted to be entry level jobs? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)hundred jobs
