In a controlled experiment, the height Y in feet of a tree and the amount of water x in ounces received are measured. Find the least squares linear equation relating Y to x if we observe the following data for n=8 trees Σ; α; = 192, Σ; yi = 258 Σ; x2; = 5280, Σixiyi x² Of = 8.25+2 Ý = 40.5+ 9.062 Ý = 1.29+2.29 Oỹ = 8.40 + 1.3x = 6864 =
