The number of newly reported crime cases in a county in New York State is shown in the accompanying table, where x represents the number of years since 1998, and y
represents number of new cases. Write the linear regression equation that represents
this set of data, rounding all coefficients to the nearest hundredth. Using this
equation, estimate the calendar year in which the number of new cases would reach
1414.

distance covered by pamela in 9 l of fuel = 99km

let us apply unitary method here.

distance covered by pamela in 1 l of fuel =99/9 =11 km

now let us find distance covered by pamela if she has 12 l of fuel.

distance covered in 12 l = distance covered in 1 l of fuel * 12

we know that distance covered by here in 1 l is 11 km.

so distance covered in 12 l of fuel = 11*12 = 132 km.

table 3 represents a direct variation function. : )
