2) You are estimating the cost ($K) of optical sensors based on the resolution of the sensor (i.e. how small of an object it can detect). Using the preliminary calculations from a data set of 8 sensors, determine the equation of the line. (Round your intermediate calculations to 3 decimal places) ∑Y = 2515 ∑X = 30 ∑XY = 6857.5 ∑X2 = 161 [removed][removed]

|
[removed]Cost = – 53.067 + 115.374 (Resolution)
|
[removed]Cost = 513.376 + (- 53.067) (Resolution)
|
[removed]Cost = 115.374 + (-53.067) (Resolution)
|
[removed]Cost = – 53.067 + 513.376 (Resolution)

3) You are trying to determine the statistical significance of an equation. Given the following information, test the slope of the equation at the 95% level of confidence. Select the correct answer out of each pair of choices.
Cost = – 76.25 + 114.82 (Range) n = 9 Sb1 = 17.669 [removed][removed]

5) A coworker is considering the use of a log linear (power) model using weight to estimate the cost of a utility vehicle. They have performed the following calculations in log space using natural logarithms. Select the corresponding unit space form of this power model equation.
Log Space b1 = 1.268074 b0 = 0.062153 [removed][removed]

|
|
[removed]Cost = 1.268074 + 0.062153 (Weight)
|
[removed]Cost = 0.062153 + 1.268074 (Weight)
|
[removed]Cost = 1.064125 (Weight) 1.268074
|
[removed]Cost = 0.062153 (Weight) 1.268074
