Develop a scatter diagram with the age of a bus as the independent variable.
Develop the estimated regression equation that can be used to predict the maintenance cost given the age of a bus.
Determine the coefficient of determination, and interpret its meaning in this problem.
At the 0.05 level of significance, is there evidence of a linear relationship between the age of a bus and the annual maintenance cost.
