Math Problem Statement
The choir sells tickets to its performances for an assortment of prices and gives some tickets away. The choir director wants to look at the relationship between the number of seats occupied at each performance and the ticket revenue for that performance. The data show a linear pattern with the summary statistics shown below: mean standard deviation [x=] number of seats occupied [\bar{x}=75.8] [s_x=14.8] [y=] ticket revenue (dollars) [\bar{y}=696] [s_y=177.6] [r=0.81] Find the equation of the least-squares regression line for predicting the ticket revenue from the number of seats occupied. Round your entries to the nearest hundredth.
