The data in the following table were obtained during a gas chromatographic determination of A9- THC in blood. [A9-THC] (ng/mL) Peak Area x 10³ 0.0 2 2.0 150 4.0 294 6.0 434 8.0 10.0 570 704 a) Assuming a linear relationship, find the least squares estimates of the slope and intercept. b) A gas chromatogram from the analysis of a blood sample from a DUI suspect gave a peak area of 350. Find the A9-THC concentration in the suspect's blood using the calibration data provided.
