Store A will be the better buy.

The price will be $53.70 after sales tax at store A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Price of Jacket at store A = $59.60

Discount = 15%

Discount Amount = \frac{15}{100}*59.60\\

Discount Amount = 0.15*59.60=\$8.94

Price after discount = Original price - Discount amount

Price after discount = 59.60 - 8.94 = $50.66

Price of Jacket at store B = $50.99

The price at store A becomes less than store B after discount, therefore, buying from store A is better.

Sales tax = 6%

Sales tax amount = \frac{6}{100}*50.66

Sales tax amount = 0.06*50.66=\$3.0396

Price after sales tax = Discount price at store A + Sales tax amount

Price after sales tax = 50.66 + 3.0396 = $53.6996

Rounding off to nearest hundredth;

Price after sales tax = $53.70

The price will be $53.70 after sales tax at store A.

General formula for a simple linear regression :

y = ab + c

Where ;

y = predicted variable ; a = slope / gradient

b = predictor / independent variable ; c = intercept

From the result obtained from the calculator :

y = -0.01246X + 74.65552

Correlation Coefficient is used to measure the strength of relationship between linear variables.

The regression Coefficient obtained is - 0.20

This shows that there is a weak negative correlation between the age at auction and the price at which painting is sold. This is because the negative sign means that value of y decreases as x increases or vice versa, however, due to a correlation vale which is closer to 0 than 1 or - 1, we can conclude that the negative relationship between the variables is weak.
