The table below shows the number of state-registered automatic weapons and the murder rate for several Northwestern states.
x --- 11.6 --- 8.1 --- 7.1 --- 3.5 --- 2.3 --- 2.7 --- 2.1 --- 0.8
y --- 13.9 --- 11 --- 9.8 --- 7 ----- 6.2 ---- 6.4 --- 5.8 --- 4.5
x = thousands of automatic weapons
y = murders per 100,000 residents
This data can be modeled by the equation y = 0.85x + 4.02. Use this equation to answer the following;
A. How many murders per 100,000 residents can be expected in a state with 9.2 thousand automatic weapons? _________________ (round to 3 decimal places)
B. How many murders per 100,000 residents can be expected in a state with 1.5 thousand automatic weapons? _________________ (round to 3 decimal places).
