Question

Question 8 of 10
The linearized regression equation for an exponential data set is
log y = 0.23x + 0.8, where x is the number of years and y is the population
What is the predicted population when x - 10? Round your answer to the
nearest whole number.
A. 81,963
B. 200
C. 3
D. 1259

.

Answer 1

Answer:

log y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute 10 for x, obtaining the following:

log y = 0.23(10) + 0.8, or

log y = 2.3 + 0.8, or 3.10, or (to the nearest whole number):

log y = 3
