Situation: The Ipod Touch has been out for two years now and a lot of data has been collected.

Relevant Relationship:

There is a functional relationship between the Price of an iPod Touch,p and Weekly Demand,s.

Below is a table of data that have been collected

Price,p,($) Weekly Demand,s,(1,000s)

150 214

170 205

190 192

210 189

230 179

250 169

A. Find the linear model that best fits this data using regression and enter the model below (for entry round the linear parameter value to nearest 0.01 and constant parameter to nearest 1)

s=T(p)=

B. ( is complete )The squared correlation coefficient r2 was ABOVE 0.95. (note: values less than 0.95 MAY mean the model is not appropriate for making predictions)

Now answer these two questions using the UNROUNDED model parameters

C. What does the model predict will be the weekly demand if the price of ipod touch is $173? (nearest 100)____

D. According to the model at what should the price be set in order to have a weekly demand of 176,500 iPod Touches? $ (nearest $1)___
