Response:

Three.

Detailed explanation:

An analyst aims to integrate Level of Education into a regression model.

This variable has four categories: HS, BS, MS, PHD.

The number of dummy variables needed is:

Given 4 categories, (4 - 1 = 3) dummy variables will suffice for the model.

If M represents a dummy variable, where 1 signifies the presence of a specific education level and 0 its absence;

M1 = 1 for HS, 0 otherwise

M2 = 1 for BS, 0 otherwise

M3 = 1 for MS, 0 otherwise

When M1, M2, and M3 are all 0, the value of PHD is implied.

The table shows the estimated number of lines of code written by computer programmers per hour when x people are working.
Zina [12379]

Answer:

Therefore, the data is best represented by:

y=26.9x-1.3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a table indicating the estimated lines of code produced by computer programmers per hour when x individuals are engaged.

The question asks which model accurately reflects this data.

To determine this, we will substitute the values of x into each function to see which one accurately produces the corresponding y (f(x)) values provided in the table:

We are presented with four functions, which are:

A)

y = 47(1.191)^x

B)

y=34\times (1.204)^x

C)

y=26.9x-1.3

D)

y=27x-4

We'll create a table displaying these values at various x levels.

x                  A                 B                C               D

2              66.66          49.3            52.5           50

4             94.57            71.44           106.3         104  

6             134.14           103.57         160.1          158

8             190.27          150.14          213.9         212

10           269.91           217.64         267.7         266

12           382.85          315.5           321.5          320.

Thus, the function that suitably represents the data is:

Option C.

y=26.9x-1.3
