Textbook Question
Chapter 2.4, Problem 88E
Electricity consumption. Refer to the data in Table 1.
- (A) Let x represent time (in years) with x = 0 corresponding to 2000, and let y represent the corresponding commercial sales. Enter the appropriate data set in a graphing calculator and find a
quadratic regression equation for the data. - (B) If y = C(x) denotes the regression equation found in part (A), find C(30) and C′(30), and write a brief verbal interpretation of these results. Round answers to the nearest tenth of a billion.

1) create a line in DESMOS with the linear regression equation: y1 ~ mx1 + b
2) create a second line with quadratic regression: y1 ~ ax1^2 + bx + c
After looking at the regression in DESMOS, is the data LINEAR or QUADRATIC?
Question 9
Assume a regression analysis yields a regression line with the value Y=$120,000 + $0.58X, where Y equals plant labor costs and X equals dollars of production output. If the company plans to produce $2,400,000 of product during the upcoming month, it would project plant labor costs to be:
a. $324,000
b. $120,000
c. $204,000
d. $2,400,000
What can you tell me about the following linear regression equation?
Y’ = 3.25x + 19.3
