Explanation / Answer

By using linear regression model we get equation Y = 15.59*X + 0.04149

Here Y is Movie price index and X is Price

Y at Price 4.42 is Y=15.59*4.42 + 0.04149 = 68.949=68.95=69.0

Y at price 6.41 is Y = 15.59*6.41 + 0.04149 = 99.973=99.97=100.0

Y at Price 7.18 is Y = 15.59*7.18 + 0.04149 =111.977=111.98=112.0
