The Table Below Shows the Velocities, in Feet Per Second

Question 8

Multiple Choice

The table below shows the velocities, in feet per second, of a ball that is thrown horizontally from the top of a 50 foot building and the distances, in feet, that it lands from the base of the building. Compute the linear regression equation for these data.  Velocity (ft/sec)  Distance (ft) 15482580291003395381124013048150\begin{array} { c c } \text { Velocity } ( \mathrm { ft } / \mathrm { sec } ) & \text { Distance } ( \mathrm { ft } ) \\15 & 48 \\25 & 80 \\29 & 100 \\33 & 95 \\38 & 112 \\40 & 130 \\48 & 150\end{array}


A) y=3.02463355x+3.626221498y = 3.02463355 x + 3.626221498
B) y=3.156886228x+.5988023952y = 3.156886228 x + .5988023952
C) y=3.073502956x+2.338987407y = 3.073502956 x + 2.338987407
D) y=3.028222013x1.079962371y = 3.028222013 x - 1.079962371
E) y=2.944432432x0.7139459459y = 2.944432432 x - 0.7139459459
