Instruction 13.34
An automotive engineer would like to be able to predict automobile fuel economy. She believes that the two most important characteristics that affect economy are engine power and the number of cylinders (4 or 6) of a car. She believes that the appropriate model is
$\begin{array}{l}
Y = 40 - 0.05 X _ { 1 } + 20 X _ { 2 } - 0.1 X _ { 1 } X _ { 2 }\\
\text { where } \begin{aligned}
X _ { 1 } & = \text { engine power } \
X _ { 2 } & = 1 \text { if } 4 \text { cylinders, } 0 \text { if } 6 \text { cylinders } \
Y & = \text { economy expressed as kilometres. }
\end{aligned}
\end{array}$
-Referring to Instruction 13.34,the predicted number of kilometres for a 300 engine power,6-cylinder car is ___________.
