Sample Use the rise/run strategy to draw the line. Start at the y-intercept (0, 12), and count 8 up and 1 to the right to the point (1, 20). Then, draw a line through the points. Test the point (3,36) in the equation y = 8x + 12 to verify that the line is correct

answer: 33 ( approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, in the linear regression formula, the slope is the a in the equation y = b + ax ( by comparing it with the general equation of line y = mx + c )

where,

here given table is,

price ($), x   :           18         23       25       29       30       33

pairs sold, y :         16         13         10       8         6       2

so, ,   ,   ,

and   ,

thus, slop of the given line is,

⇒  

⇒   ≈ 33
