Problem

The table below gives the Gross Domestic Product per
capita and the telephone density (main lines per 100
population) for several countries in a recent year.

Country

GDP/Cap.

Tel. Den.

Austria

$25032

46.55

Israel

$13596

41.77

Argentina

$ 8182

15.99

Brazil

$ 3496

7.48

China

$ 424

3.35

Using the LIN regression, find the equation representing
the best fit, in the form y=a+bx, where x=GDP/capita
and y=telephone density. Find the coefficient of
correlation. Use this equation to predict the telephone
density of a country with a GDP per capita of $10,695. If
a country has a telephone density of 5.68, what GDP
per capital would you expect this country to have?
