In: Statistics and Probability
A sales manager collected the following data on x = years of experience and y = annual sales ($1,000s). The estimated regression equation for these data is
ŷ = 82 + 4x.
| Salesperson | Years of Experience |
Annual Sales ($1,000s) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1 | 80 |
| 2 | 3 | 97 |
| 3 | 4 | 102 |
| 4 | 4 | 107 |
| 5 | 6 | 103 |
| 6 | 8 | 101 |
| 7 | 10 | 119 |
| 8 | 10 | 128 |
| 9 | 11 | 127 |
| 10 | 13 | 136 |
(a)
