Explanation / Answer

The regression equation can be found using the statistical software R. The equation is given below:

x<-c(0,1,2,4,5,5)
> y<-c(36,45,52,49,61,68)
> lm(y~x)

Call:
lm(formula = y ~ x)

Coefficients:
(Intercept) x  
38.328 4.766

Hence the equation is Y=38.328+4.776*X

Hence the (d) scatter plot is the right option.

For x=2,

Y=38.328+4.776*2

=38.328+9.552

=47.88=47.9
