Question
The table below shows the number of state-registered automatic weapons and the murder rate for several Northwestern states.
| xx | 11.4 | 8.6 | 6.7 | 3.7 | 2.8 | 2.4 | 2.4 | 0.3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| yy | 13.6 | 11 | 9.4 | 7.1 | 6.1 | 5.8 | 6.4 | 4.6 |
xx = thousands of automatic weapons
yy = murders per 100,000 residents
This data can be modeled by the equation y=0.81x+4.1.y=0.81x+4.1. Use this equation to answer the following;
A) How many murders per 100,000 residents can be expected in a state with 2.5 thousand automatic weapons?
