Question 1196645
the straight line equation is y = m * x + b
m is the slope
b is the y-intercept.
using the linear regression calculator at <a href = "http://www.alcula.com/calculators/statistics/linear-regression/#gsc.tab=0" target = "_blank">http://www.alcula.com/calculators/statistics/linear-regression/#gsc.tab=0</a>, i get:
y=142.07216104119 * x - 295.7303368135
the slope is 142.0721610119.
round to 2 decimal places to get:
y = 142.07 * x - 295.73
when x = 32, y = 142.07 * 32 - 295.73 = 4250.51
it's not exactly 4459, but it's close.
results from the calculator are shown below.

the x-values in the equation are the capabity in terrabytes.
th y-values in the equation are the price.
