What score does the model predict for 3 h of homework?(c) What does the number 40 in Part (b) mean in the context of the situation?

Accepted Solution

A:
a) there is a linear relationship with the test scores go up with increasing hours spent on hw

b) y=8x+40 so at x=3h, y=test score= 8*3+40 = 64

c) 40 represents test score when u spend 0 hour on hw
