Provide an appropriate response.The data below are the average one-way commute times (in minutes) for selected students and the number of absences for those students during the term. Find the least-squares regression line for the given data. What would be the predicted number of absences if the commute time was 95 minutes? Is this a reasonable question? Round the predicted number of absences to the nearest whole number. Round the least-squares regression line values to the nearest hundredth.
