Q.
If two lines of regression are $3\overline{x} - 2\overline{y} + 1 = 0$ and $2\overline{x} - \overline{y} - 2 = 0$, then ($\overline{x},\ \overline{y}$)is
A) (8,5)
B) (5,8)
C) (5,5)
D) (8,8)
Explanation
(b)
Given lines are $3\overline{x} - 2\overline{y} + 1 = 0\ \ \ \ \ldots(i)$
And $2\overline{x} - \overline{y} - 2 = 0\ \ \ \ \ \ldots(ii)$
On solving Eqs. (i)and (ii), we get $\overline{x} = 5,\overline{y} = 8$
