Using Regression Equation we can find the

y=67.238x-196.38

R2 explains the variation in y w.r.t. to variation in y w.r.t. variation


in x. Pvalue <0.05; hence the model is accurate and not random
R2=0.927

229-265 units

The model is quite accurate with Rsqaure=0.927 and Pvalue


<0.05. He is also now aware that he has sufficient 300 units,
more than max 265 required in the range and there will not be
any shortage.
Hence the model can be useful for the Manager to estimate the
no of units to be kept ready for lease and associated works
involved.
