Extracted text: An electric utility wishes to examine the relationship between temperature and electricity use in its service region during the summer months. The bivariate data below give the maximum temperature (denoted by x, in degrees Fahrenheit) and the electricity use (denoted by y, in thousands of kilowatt hours) for a random sample of fifteen summer days. The data are shown in the Figure 1 scatter plot. Also given are the products of the temperature values and values for electricity use for each of the fifteen days. (These products, written in the column labelled "xy," may aid in calculations.)
