A restaurant sells pizza for the prices in the data table.  Calculate the linear regression equation of the data.

• y = 1.5x + 12
• y = 12x + 1.5
• y = 0.67x - 8
• y = -8x + 0.67

A person travels by car.  They record their miles driven in a data table.  Calculate the linear regression equation of this data.

• y = 61.93x - 1.79
• y = -1.79x + 61.93
• y = 0.016x + 0.03
• y = 0.03x + 0.016

Find the equation of the Line of Best Fit from the data set. 

• y = 0.892x - 1.82
• y = 1.82x - 5.02
• y = 0.796x + 5.02
• y = 1.82x + 5.02
