Expert Solution
Step 1

Hello. Since your question has multiple sub-parts, we will solve first three sub-parts for you. If you want remaining sub-parts to be solved, then please resubmit the whole question and specify those sub-parts you want us to solve.

The data shows airframe as well as engine costs for two separate airlines.

By regression analysis, we mean to determine how the response variable is affected by the independent variable(s). For a simple linear regression, there is only one independent variable.

A simple linear regression equation can be written as, y = a + bx.

a.  In this case, we want to determine how the engine cost is affected by the airframe cost for the Northern Airline.

Hence, our simple linear regression here is:

Engine Cost = a + b * Airframe cost.
