Suppose the following data were collected from a sample of 5 car manufacturers relating monthly car sales to the number of dealerships and the quarter of the year. Use statistical software to find the following regression equation:   
 
SALESi= b0 + b1DEALERSHIPSi + b2 QUARTER1i+ b3QUARTER2i + b4QUARTER3i+ ei
