Question: A patient is given a drip feed containing a particular chemical and its concentration in his blood is measured, in suitable units, at one hour

A patient is given a drip feed containing a particular chemical and its concentration in his blood

is measured, in suitable units, at one hour intervals. The doctors believe that a linear

relationship will exist between the variables.

Time (x) Concentration(y) (Time)

2

(Concentration)

2

(Time)*(Concentration)

0 2.4 0 5.76 0

1 4.3 1 18.49 4.3

2 5 4 25 10

3 6.9 9 47.61 20.7

4 9.1 16 82.81 36.4

5 11.4 25 130 57

6 13.4 36 179.6 80.4

= 21 , = 52.5 ,

2 = 91 ,

2 = 489.2 , = 208.8 , = 7
