The table to the right contains price-demand and total cost data for the production of projectors, where p is the wholesale price (in dollars) of a projector for an annual demand of x projectors and C is the total cost (in dollars) of producing x projectors. Answer the following questions (A) - (D). (A) Find a quadratic regression equation for the price-demand data, using x as the independent variable. X 270 360 520 780 The fixed costs are $. (Round to the nearest dollar as needed.) ITTI y = (Type an expression using x as the variable. Use integers or decimals for any numbers in the expression. Round to two decimal places as needed.) Use the linear regression equation found in the previous step to estimate the fixed costs and variable costs per projector. The variable costs are $ per projector.
