A survey is conducted to determine whether the age of car influences the annual maintenance cost. A sample of 10 cars is selected and the data is shown below.
a. Develop a scatter chart for these data with age of cars as the independent variable. What does the scatter chart indicate about the relationship between age of a car and the annual maintenance cost?
b. Use the data to develop an estimated regression equation that could be used to predict the annual maintenance cost given the age of the car. What is the estimated regression model?
