A small independent organic food store offers a variety of specialty coffees. To determine whether price has an impact on sales, the managers kept track of how many pounds of each variety of coffee were sold last month. The data, scatterplot, and summary statistics are shown below.

Comment on whether each of the following conditions for correlation / linear regression is met.

Quantitative variable condition.

Linearity condition.

Outlier condition.

Estimate the linear regression model that relates the response variable (monthly sales) to the predictor variable (price per pound).

Find the slope of the regression line.

Find the intercept of the regression line.

Write the equation of the linear model.

Using the estimated regression equation,

During a promotion, Christina's department store offers a mailing "scratch a winnerdiscount savings." After customers select the items they wish to purchase, they scratch their discount sticker from the mailing to determine the discount they will receive. The scratch wheel is divided into 12 slices.

The remaining slice is gold and awards a 100% discount if the customer scratches that slice!
