Julia, in the Budget Office of Artwork, Inc., knows the annual sales of the company for the last three years: $4.65 million, $4.42 million, and $4.17 million, respectively. She needs an estimate of fourth-year sales to develop a budget. Help Julia by finding a linear function to estimate fourth-year sales using the given data where x = 1, 2, 3 for first three years and y = annual sales. Use the following points. (a) (1, 4.65) and (2, 4.42) 3.96 (b) (1, 4.65) and (3, 4.17) 3.93 (c) (2, 4.42) and (3, 4.17) 3.92 Do the results in (a) through (c) suggest a linear trend? O The estimated sales are close and suggest a linear trend. The estimated sales are not close and do not suggest a linear trend.
