The following table gives retail values of a 2017 Corvette for various odometer readings. Odometer Reading Retail Value ($) 13,000 52,425 18,000 51,675 20,000 51,450 25,000 50,475 29,000 49,875 32,000 49,075 (a) Find the equation of the least-squares line for the data. (Where odometer reading is the independent variable, x, and retail value is the dependent variable. Round your numerical values to two decimal places.) = (b) Use the equation from part (a) to predict the retail price of a 2017 Corvette with an odometer reading of 26,000. Round to the nearest $100. $ (c) Find the linear correlation coefficient for these data. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) r = -0.99 (d) What is the significance of the fact that the linear correlation coefficient is negative for these data? The variables are negatively correlated, which means that as the odometer reading goes up, the retail value goes down
