Put the equation in the form of: ŷ = a + bxFind the correlation coefficient. Is it significant?Predict the number of deaths for ages 40 and 60.Based on the given data, is there a linear relationship between age of a driver and driver fatality rate?What is the slope of the least squares (best-fit) line?
