The admissions officer for clearwater college developed thefollowing estimated regression equation relating the final collegegpa to the student’s sat mathematics score and high-schoolgpa. y = -1.41 + .0235x1 + .00486x2where: x1 = high-school grade point averagex2 = sat mathematics scorey = final college grade point averageinterpret the coefficients in this estimated regressionequation. estimate the final college gpa for a student who has ahigh-school average of 84 and a score of 540 on the sat mathematicstest.

3.19

Step-by-step explanation:

In this equation, y represents the final college GPA, x₁ represents the high school GPA and x₂ represents the SAT math score.

For a student with a high school GPA of 84 and a score of 540 on the SAT math test, we use x₁ = 84 and x₂ = 540:

y = -1.41 + 0.0235(84) + 0.00486(540) = 3.1884 ≈ 3.19

the mistake in the pattern is that :

b. the decimal point was moved one too many place values each time

the correct pattern could be made by :

b. moving the decimal point to the right the same numbers of place values as the exponents

combine all like terms then its just a 2 step equation
