a) We find regression equation as
Y =-621.576+191.7994x
Where x = advt expenditure in 1000s and y = sales in 1000s
(refer excel sheet enclosed)
b) When advt exp = 9000, we have x =9. Substitute in regression equation to get
Sales = -621.576+191.7994*9=1104.619
i.e. Sales would be 11,04,619 dollars.
