| 5 | 9.75 | 3 |
| 6 | 11.00 | 4 |
| 7 | 14.00 | 6 |
| 8 | 10.75 | 5 |
- a. McFadden wants you to graph the eight paints (xi, yi), i = 1, 2, …8. She has been concerned because customers have been waiting too long for their food, and this graph is intended to help her find possible causes of the problem.

- Estimating a cost function, high-low method. Lacy Dallas is examining customer-service costs in the southern region of Camilla Products. Camilla Products has more than 200 separate electrical products that are sold with a 6-month guarantee of full repair or replacement with a new product. When a product is returned by a customer, a service report is prepared. This service report includes details of the problem and the time and cost of resolving the problem. Weekly data for the most recent 8-week period are as follows: Plot the relationship between customer-service costs and number of service reports. Is the relationship economically plausible?
