Explanation / Answer

Let us assume year as independent variable and 1990 as year 1

The equation of the regression line is:

y = 12.012 + 2.665?x

We will find an equation of the regression line in 4 steps.

Step 1: Find X?Y and X2 as it was done in the table below.

Step 2: Find the sum of every column:

?X=276 , ?Y=1011.7534 , ?X?Y=14837.7915 , ?X2=4324

Step 3: Use the following equations to find a and b:

ab=?Y??X2??X??XYn??X2?(?X)2=1011.7534?4324?276?14837.791523?4324?2762?12.012=n??XY??X??Yn??X2?(?X)2=23?14837.7915?276?1011.753423?4324?(276)2?2.665

Step 4: Substitute a and b in regression equation formula

------------------------------------------

c) For 1995, x = 5

y = 12.012+2.665(5) = 25.325

for 2000 x =10

y = 38.662

d) in 2016 x = 26

y = 81.29

e) Average increase = 68.43-12.9135/23

= 2.41376
