a. Plot data to determine whether there is a straight- line (linear) relationship.
b. Using Microsoft Excel determine estimated regression equation (please show all necessary steps tin detail in order get to regression equation)
c. If management predicts that Miami Cafe's payroll next year will be $625, what will be the estimated sales?
d. Calculate standard error of the estimate (show all your work)
e. Calculate the coefficient of correlation (show your work)
