Multiple Choice

Solve the problem.
-The paired data below consist of the temperatures on randomly chosen days and the amount a certain kind of plant grew (in millimeters) . By using linear regression, the following equation is obtained: $\mathrm{y}=14.6+0.211 \mathrm{x}$ where $\mathrm{x}$ is temperature and $\mathrm{y}$ is growth in millimeters. Use this equation to predict the growth of a plant if the temperature is 79 .

A) 31.90
B) 32.53
C) 31.27
D) 29.61
