Question 418681: I have to create a regression graph using the X and Y axis that I come up with from the following word problem:
Scenario: Regression equations are created by modeling data, such as the following:
Sales = (Cost Per Item � Number of Items) � Constant Charges
In this equation, constant charges may be rent, salaries, or other fixed costs. This includes anything that you have to pay for periodically as a business owner. This value is negative because this cost must be paid each period and must be paid whether you make a sale or not.
Your company may wish to release a new e-reader device. Based on data collected from various sources, your company has come up with the following regression equation for the sales of the new e-reader:
Sales = $0.15 � number of e-readers sold � $28
Or, assuming x = the number of e-readers sold, this would be the same regression equation:
Sales = 0.15x � 28
In this case, the values are given in thousands (i.e., the cost of making an individual e-reader will be $150 [0.15 � 1,000], with $28,000 [28 * 1,000] in constant charges).

I came up with x = 560/3 and Y = 28000. Is this correct?
