Using a regression calculator, what is a good prediction for the height of the tree when it is 100 years old?

A calculator screen. A 2-column table with 6 rows titled Data. Column 1 is labeled x with entries 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9. Column 2 is labeled y with entries 17, 25, 42, 47, 54, 69. The regression equation is y almost-equals 7.36 x + 3.08; r almost-equals 0.998.
