  1. Develop the equation of the simple regression line to predict sales on advertising expenditures using these data.                                                                                                             
  2. Find out the sales that are likely to be attained when advertising expenditure is 25

million.                                                                                                          

  1. Compute the coefficient of correlation and coefficient of determination and interpret their values.
  2. Test the hypothesis that the population correlation coefficient is zero at 5% level of significance.
