The owner of a chain of fruit shake stores would like to study the correlation between
atmospheric temperature and sales during the summer season. A random sample of 12
days is selected with the results given as follows:

Day 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
Temperature (oF) 79 76 78 84 90 83 93 94 97 85 88 82
Total Sales (Units) 147 143 147 168 206 155 192 211 209 187 200 150

Determine the regression equation, plot the regression line and interpret it.

Linear Correlation Coefficient:

r=
√n ¿ ¿ ¿
12(183222)−(1029)(2115)
r=
√ 12 ( 88733 )−(1029)2 ∙ √12 ( 380887 )−(2115)2
r =0.9270572554
r =0.927

Interpretation:
From the computed data and table above, we can conclude that the correlation between
atmospheric temperature and sales during the summer season indicates a high positive correlation.
Meaning, increased atmospheric temperature is highly related with the increase in sales of fruit shake.
