Answer:
A.58.81
Step-by-step explanation:
x = number of parties attended
y = number of text messages sent
The residual is the difference between the actual number of text messages sent (200) and the number of texts predicted by the regression model:
[tex]y=64.96+25.41x\\y=64.96+25.41*3\\y=141.19[/tex]
The residual is:
[tex]R=200 - 141.19\\R=58.81[/tex]
The answer is alternative A.58.81
