The heights (in feet) and the numbers of stories of the nine tallest buildings in Houston, Texas

(a) x = 950 feet 

(b) x = 850 feet

(c) x = 800 feet 

(d) x = 700 feet

Find the equation of the regression line for the data. Then construct a scatter plot of the data and draw the regression line. (Each pair of variables has a significant correlation.) Then use the regression equation to predict the value of y for each of the x-values, if meaningful. If the x-value is not meaningful to predict the value of y, explain why not. If convenient, use technology.
