Question: The mean and standard deviation for yearly temperature in a local town are x = 68 degrees and Sx= 22.26 degrees. The mean and standard

The mean and standard deviation for yearly temperature in a local town are x = 68 degrees and Sx= 22.26 degrees. The mean and standard deviation for yearly rain amount in the same local town are = 27.2 inches and Sy= 8.6 inches. The correlation coefficient is r = 0.71. Find the equation for the least-squares regression line to predict amount of rain given the temperature in a local town.

A. = 8.5476 + 1.8377x

B. = 8.6 + 0.2743x

C. = 8.6 + 1.8377x

D. = 8.5476 + 0.2743x

E. = 8.6 + 2.5884x
