Demand for stereo headphones and MP3 players for joggers has caused Nina Industries to grow almost 50 percent over the past year. The number of joggers continues to expand, so Nina expects demand for headsets to also expand, because yet, no safety laws have been passed to prevent joggers from wearing them. Demand for the players for last year was as follows: MONTH DEMAND (UNITS) January 4,220 February 4,320 March 4,020 April 4,420 May 5,020 June 4,720 July 5,320 August 4,920 September 5,420 October 5,720 November 6,320 December 6,020 Using linear regression analysis, what would you estimate demand to be for each month next year? (Round two decimal places) To be reasonably confident of meeting demand, Nina decides to use 3 standard errors of estimate for safety. How many additional units should be held to meet this level of confidence?
