A manager wishes to determine the relationship between the number of years her sales representatives have been employed by the firm and their amount of sales (in thousands of dollars) per month. Find the equation of the regression line for the given data. What would be the predicted sales if the sales representative was employed by the firm for 30 years? Is this reasonable? Why or why not? Round the predicted sales to the nearest dollar. Round the regression line values to the nearest hundredth.

hey there!

if she's saving for six months, let's divide the total number we need for the trip by six, dividing it into the amount that needs to be saved for each month.

500 ÷ 6 =

she needs to save at least this amount each month, so we should use this symbol: ≥

let x be the amount she saves each month.

your final answer is x ≥

hope this !

an

y = 6x -3y -12

y +3y +12 = 6x

=> . x = { 2y / 3 +2 } this is equation of line in terms of x

=> . if line meets the x-axis the co-ordinates of meeting point would be ( x , 0 )

=> . x = 2 ( 0 ) / 3 + 2

=> . x = 2

so, the point is ( 2 , 0 )

i think the amount would be $140.62
