Side by Side Food additives such as the plant based extract tara gum are used in industrial food preparation as thickening agents to stabilize emulsions and create an impression of thickness and creaminess without adding extra calories The effect of tara gum on the viscosity in millipascal seconds mPa s of fruit yogurt drinks was assessed for various concentrations of tara gum in grams per 100 grams of drink g 100 g The findings are displayed Conce ntrati on Conce ntrati on g 100g Viscos ity mPa s g 100g Viscos ity mPa s 0 00 0 03 0 06 0 09 11 7 20 9 25 7 0 13 0 16 105 4 126 5 150 3 31 4 42 4 53 8 0 25 0 28 0 31 0 34 0 38 0 41 0 44 181 2 210 8 216 0 303 To access the complete data set click the link for your preferred software format Macmillan Learning Resources Use the equation of the regression line to show that when x is the mean tara gum concentration the predicted viscosity is the mean of the observed viscosities The mean concentration Give Up Using the equation for the regression line provide the mean concentration Enter your answer rounded to three decimal places The mean viscosity is y g 100g Provide the mean viscosity Enter your answer rounded to two decimal places mPa s
