You run a regression analysis on a bivariate set of data (n=117 ). You obtain the regression equationy=−0.581x−8.763with a correlation coefficient of r=−0.656  (which is significant at α=0.01 ). You want to predict what value (on average) for the explanatory variable will give you a value of 170 on the response variable.


What is the predicted explanatory value?
