Explanation / Answer

Here Sum = 8.5885

So r = ZxZy /(N-1) = 8.5885/9 = 0.9543

Here slope b1 = r (Sy/Sx) = 0.9543 * (5.46/5.01) = 1.041

B) what does b1 mean in this context?

an additional $ 1.041of Wales is associates with each additional sales person working

C) Find the intercept, b0

let say the line equation is y^ = b0 + 1.041x

so that will pass through mean point (10.3, 17.9)

17.9 = b0 + 1.041 * 10.3

b0 = 7.178

D) what does b0 mean in this context?

Here when there is no sales peopleworking, thenthere would be $ 7.178 (in thousand dollars) will be the sale.

E) write the equation that predicts sales from number of sales people working.

y^ = 7.178 + 1.041 x

F) if 17 people are working sales would be __

y^ (17) = 7.178 + 1.041 * 17 = 24.875 k = $ 24875

G) if sales are actually $25,000, what is the value of the residual?

Residual= actual - preicted = $25000 - $ 24875 = $ 125
